To find a, you need to isolate/get the variable "a" by itself in the equation:
Multiply the inverse of 1/2, which is 2, to get rid of the fraction
a - 7 = 66 Add 7 on both sides to get "a" by itself
a - 7 + 7 = 66 + 7
a = 73
I think its 2 cuz i think its 6^2
- 8x + 44 ≥ 60
- 8x ≥ 60 - 44
- 8x ≥ 16
x ≤ - 2
- 4x + 50 < 58
- 4x < 58 - 50
- 4x < 8
x > - 2
Now put the two together. Logically, these two answers since a number cannot be both less than AND greater than - 2.
Your answer should be no solution.
60*(1-x)=36
60-60x=36
-60x=36-60
-60x=-24
x=24/60
x=4/10
x=2/5
x=0.4
36 is 40% less than 60
