Answer:
68 plants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of plants that Reuben bought from the nursery.
We have been given that Reuben bought a whole bunch of plants at the nursery the other day. Right away, five died. So number of plant left would be 
.
We are also told that then our dog dug up 2/9 of them. So number of plants left after dug-up would be 
.
Further a rabbit came and ate ½ of what was left. So number of plants left would be 
.
Since Reuben had only 7 plants left, so we will equate our expression with 7 and solve for x as:
Therefore, Reuben bought 68 plants at the nursery.
|4r + 8| ≥ 32
Split this expression into two expressions:
First ⇒ 4r + 8 ≥ 32 and second ⇒ 4r + 8 ≤ - 32
---
First expression: 4r + 8 ≥ 32
Subtract 8 from both sides.
4r ≥ 24
Divide both sides by 4.
r ≥ 6
---
Second expression: 4r + 8 ≤ - 32
Subtract 8 from both sides.
4r ≤ -40
Divide both sides by 4.
r ≤ -10

Answer:
GCF: 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The thing you want to do is factor both numbers down to their lowest primes.
40:2 * 2 * 2 * 5
60:2 * 2 * 5 * 3
Now underline what is in both sets of primes. I'll bold them. The number that is bolded comes from 2 * 2 * 5 which is 20
The highest common factor is 20
the answer would be 7/8
