Answer:
y = 2(x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because Gavin representing "x" loses 3 marbles, which is shown by the -3 in the parenthesis, is half of what Cindy has, or as the problem says "Cindy has double the marbles that Gavin has." These two together result in y=2(x-3)
Question:
What is the equation for the following statement,"One-half of a number decreased by 3 is 21.
Answer:
<em>half the number = x/2 </em>
<em>decreased by 3 </em>
<em>(x/2) -3 =21</em>
<em>=48</em>
You multiply the area of the triangle by 2
Answer:
1/2k-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a < -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write out inequality
-2a - 5 > 3
Step 2: Add 5 to both sides
-2a > 8
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2
a < -4
Here, we can see that any value of <em>a </em>less than -4 works. So <em>a</em> could be -124 or -5, or even -1271293587923857 and it would work.
