Three times a number = 3x
Increased by 8 = + 8
So far we have: 3x + 8
no more than = <=
the number decreased by 4 = x -4
Put it all together and we have:
3x + 8 <= x - 4
Solve for x
3x + 8 <= x - 4
3x - x <= -4 - 8
2x <= -12
2x / 2 <= -12 / 2
x <= -6
-6 is the number / answer.
Mark brainliest pls :)
a.
38<14+0.05x
24<0.05x
x>480
b. When the number of calls per month is greater than 480, then Plan 1 is more economical. Example: If the number of calls is greater than 480 say 500, then charges in plan 2 will be $39, but Plan 1 is more economical and charges will be $38.

The answer is y = 2x + 7.
Explanation:
If you are an expert in graph then you are able to find the slope without calculating. (Rise over Run by looking at the graph.)
We can also find the slope by calculating m-value.
---> Rise Over Run
<em>But how are we gonna calculate if we don't have any two given ordered pairs?</em>
The answer is, we can just pick two ordered pairs that are part of the graph, or rather say that the graph passes through.
The graph passes through (-3,1) and (-2,3).
Then we can calculate the slope by using rise/run.

Thus, the slope is m = 2.
However, we are not done yet. We just only found out the slope. We need to find the y-intercept too.
From Linear Function - 
Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.
Since b = y-intercept, we don't need to calculate/substitute x = 0. We simply find which number the graph has y-intercept at.
Which is (0,7), the y-intercept.
Then we substitute b = 7 as y-intercept.
Thus the answer is 
Answer:
2x + y = 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope of the required line by writing the line 2x + y = -5 in slope intercept form:
2x + y = -5
y = -2x - 5
- so the slope is -2.
Therefore the required equation is
y = -2x + 2 (where 2 is the y-intercept).
Converting to standard form:
y = -2x + 2
2x + y = 2.
