Answer:

  1. |w -30| > 1.6
  2. (-∞, 28.4) U (31.6, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The snack bags will be rejected if their weight differs from 30 grams by more than 1.6 grams:

  |w -30| > 1.6

__

2. This inequality resolves to two inequalities.

  w -30 > 1.6

  w > 31.6 . . . . . add 30

and

  -(w -30) > 1.6

  w -30 < -1.6 . . . multiply by -1

  w < 28.4 . . . . . add 30

The solution in interval notation is the union of the two disjoint intervals:

  (-∞, 28.4) U (31.6, ∞)

The sum of 237 and six times the opposite of a number is 405. What is the number?
IgorC [24]
The number is 28.

The equation would be:

237 + 6(x) = 405

The problem states that 6 times the opposite of a number, however, since the number sign was not given, we do not know whether it is in a positive or negative form. So we leave it as only x.

237 +  6x = 405
6x = 405 - 237
6x = 168
6x / 6 = 168 / 6
x = 28

To check:

237 + 6 (28) = 405
237 + 168 = 405
405 = 405

Answer:

  £592 for 16 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

The classroom floor area is ...

  A = LW = (8.8 m)(2.2 m) = 19.36 m²

The cupboard floor area is ...

  A = (2.3 m)(2.1 m) = 4.83 m²

Then the total area to be covered is ...

  19.36 m² +4.83 m² = 24.19 m²

At 1.6 m² per box, the number of boxes required is ...

  (24.19 m²)/(1.6 m²/box) = 15.12 boxes

If we assume we can only purchase whole boxes, we need to purchase 16 boxes to cover the floor. The cost will be ...

  (16 boxes)(£37/box) = £592 . . . . cost of laminate to replace the floor
