Answer:

8 yards < 10 yards

He has enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard = 3 feet

y yards = 24 feet

$\frac{1}{3} :\frac{y}{24}$

y · 3 = 1 · 24

3y = 24

3y ÷ 3 = 24 ÷ 3

y = 8

24 feet = 8 yards

8 yards < 10 yards

Answer:

No solution

Option 4 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The system of inequality

$y>\dfrac{3}{2}x-1$

$y$

We need to choose correct option.

Option 1: (-5,2)

Put x=-5 and y=2

Equation 1 Equation 2

$2>\dfrac{3}{2}(-5)-1$ $2$

$2>-8.5$ $2$

TRUE FALSE

Option 2: (2,2)

Put x=2 and y=2

Equation 1 Equation 2

$2>\dfrac{3}{2}(2)-1$ $2$

$2>2$ $2$

FALSE FALSE

Option 3: (5,2)

Put x=-5 and y=2

Equation 1 Equation 2

$2>\dfrac{3}{2}(5)-1$ $2$

$2>6.5$ $2$

FALSE TRUE

Option 1, 2 and 3 are incorrect because both equation must be true for solution.

Hence, Option 4 is correct no solution.

Find g(x)-f(x) if f(x)=-3+4 and g(x)=5x-12

Verizon [17]

Answer: g(x)-f(x)=8x-16

Explanation:

f(x)=-3x+4 (I am assuming "-3+4" is a typo and it is "-3x+4")

g(x)=5x-12

g(x)-f(x)=(5x-12)-(-3x+4)=5x+3x-12-4=8x-16

Amrita thinks of a number. She doubles it, adds 9 , divides her answer by 3 and finally subtracts 1 . She obtains the same numbe

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Amrita's number is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

x Double the unknown number

2x Add 9

2x + 9 Divide the answer by 3

2/3x + 3 Subtract 1

2/3x + 2 Set this equal to the original number

2/3x + 2 = x

-2/3x -2/3x Subtract 2/3x from both sides

2 = 1/3x Multiply both sides by 3

6 = x
