ANSWER
m < -2
EXPLANATION
We want to find the solution set for m in:
First, collect like terms:
Now, divide both sides by -3. When you divide an inequality by a negative number, <em>the sign changes direction</em>:
This means that all values of m must be less than -2.
<em>None of the options contains the correct solution set.</em>
Answer:
Part A:
x+y= 95
x = y+25
Part B : 35 minutes
Part C : No
Step-by-step explanation:
Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day
x+y= 95
Where:
x =the number of minutes Eric plays basketball
y= the number of minutes he plays volleyball
He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he plays volleyball.
x = y+25
System:
x+y= 95
x = y+25
Replacing x=y+25 on the first equation:
(y+25) + y =95
Solving for Y
y+25+y =95
25+2y=95
2y=95-25
2y=70
y = 70/2
y = 35 minutes
Part C : No
if x = 35
x+y= 95
35+y =95
y= 95-35
y = 60 minutes
Replacing y=60 on the other equation:
x = y+25
35 = 60+25
35 ≠85
