Answer:
You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:
First, remember how the absolute value works:
IxI = x if x ≥ 0
IxI = -x if x ≤ 0
Then if we have something like:
IxI < B
We can rewrite this as
-B < x < B
Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:
I-k -2I < 18
Then we can rewrite this as:
-18 < (-k - 2) < 18
Now let's isolate k:
first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:
-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2
-16 < -k < 20
Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:
-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20
16 > k > -20
Then k can be any value between these two limits.
So the correct options (from the given ones) are:
k = -16
k = -8
k = 0
1. This must be greater than or equal to 0 (there can't be any negatives!)
8 - .5t ≥ 0.
8 ≥ .5t
t ≤ 16
D.
2. 4(2x-1) = 2x + 35
8x - 4 = 2x + 35
6x = 39
x = 6.5
H.
3. c = .8(x-15) = .8x-12
A.
4. m = number of marble cupcakes
s = number of strawberry shortcake cupcakes
6m + 8.5s = 391
m = 1/2s
6(.5s)+8.5s = 391
11.5s = 391
s = 34
m = 17
F.
5. B
6. Use substitution
2x + 3x = 10
5x = 10
x = 2
7. (sorry I'm not sure!)
8. G
9. L = number of balls
B = number of bats
L + B = 100
B = 100 - L
4.5L+20B = 822
4.5L + 20(100-L) = 822
4.5L -20L + 2000 = 822
1178 = 15.5L
L = 76
10. J
Answer:
$2100
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 of 4500 is 1500
to find 1/3 of a number is to multiply by 1/3
1/3 * 4500 = 1500
$1500 is for savings
subtract 1500 from 4500
4500 - 1500 = 3000
the remaining money is $3000
to find 50% of something, divide by 2
3000/2 = 1500
$1500 is spent on food.
20% of 3000 is 600
to find 20% of something, multiply the decimal value (0.2)
0.2 * 3000 = 600
$600 are spent on rent.
$450 leftover
1500 + 600 = 2100
Food and rent cost $2100
