Answer:

x ≥ 8

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Alg

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define inequality

-36x - 24 ≤ -6(5x + 12)

Step 2: Solve for x

Distribute -6: -36x - 24 ≤ -30x - 72
Add 36 on both sides: -24 ≤ 6x - 72
Add 72 on both sides: 48 ≤ 6x
Divide both sides by 6: 8 ≤ x
Rewrite: x ≥ 8

Here we see that any number x greater than or equal to 8 would work as a solution.

The equation y-4=-3(x+4) is written in point-slope form. What is the y-intercept of the line

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

-8

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to rewrite it in y=mx+b form where b-is the y-intercept

y-4= -3(x+4)

distribute

y-4 = -3x-12

isolate y

y= -3x-8

compare this with the y=mx+b so y-intercept is -8

What is the distance between these two numbers on a number line :6,4 1/4

n200080 [17]

To get the distance between

$6$ and $4\frac{1}{4}$ , we subtract $4\frac{1}{4}$ from $6$

That is,

$d=6-4\frac{1}{4}$

We change the mixed number to improper fraction now to get,

$d=6-\frac{17}{4}$

This is the same as,

$d=\frac{6}{1}-\frac{17}{4}$

We collect LCM to be 4

$=\frac{4\times6-17}{4}$

This gives us,

$=\frac{24-17}{4}$

$=\frac{7}{4}$

Convert back to mixed number to get,

$=1\frac{3}{4}$

Therefore the distance between the two numbers is $=1\frac{3}{4}$

Note that the other way round will result in negative value. That is subtracting 6 from $4\frac{1}{4}$ will give $-1\frac{3}{4}$

But since this is distance we find the absolute value and get the same result.

$d=|-1\frac{3}{4}|=1\frac{3}{4}$
