Answer:
the answer is x<30
Step-by-step explanation:
add 4 to both sides
divide both sides by -2
the negative sign changes the sign from > to <
Let the unknown number be x.
x × -7 = 7 (x + -40)
-7x = 7x - 280
-14x = -280
x = 280/14
x = 20
Hope this helps!
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
- The top soil weighs 40 pounds per bag.
- The mulch weighs 20 pounds per bag.
- The cart can only carry up to 480 pounds.
Notice that the restriction is a maximum of 480 pounds, that means the inequality must include the sign
.
Now, let's call
the top soil and
the mulch, the inequality that represents this problem, would be

5/6 is equivalent to 20/24
3/4 is equivalent to 18/24
so 5/6 is bigger than 3/4 by 2/24
