Well for the first one you have to subtract 3 on both sides so that would make the equation x > -8 (because a negative subtracting a positive is basically a negative plus negative) and so your equations done. For the second one you divide both ides by -4 so your equation would be x < 4 (the sign would be less then or qual to because you divided by a negative)
Answer:
14 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance traveled from home to destination = x miles.
Speed while going to friend's house = 35 miles per hour.
Speed while coming back = 40 miles per hour.
Total Time taken for the journey = 45 minutes = 0.75 hours.
Let the time taken while going to friend's house = y hours.
Therefore, the time taken while going to friend's house = (0.75 - y) hours.
To find x and y, model the speeds of both the journeys.
Speed while going to friend's house = Distance/Time.
35 = x/y.
x = 35y (Equation 1).
Speed while coming back = Distance/Time.
40 = x/(0.75 - y).
x = 40(0.75 - y) (Equation 2).
Since x = x, therefore:
35y = 30 - 40y.
75y = 30.
y = 30/75.
y = 0.4 hours.
Put y = 0.4 hours in Equation 1:
x = 35y.
x = 35(0.4).
x = 14.
Therefore, the distance between my friend's house and my house is 14 miles!!!
Jackson achieved national distinction for his performance in the War of 1812. In the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, he oversaw the destruction of 15 percent of the Creek population; the treaty that ended hostilities forced the Creek to cede over 20 million acres of their ancestral lands. Jackson is most remembered for his performance in the Battle of New Orleans, during which he led his troops to a decisive victory over the British after the Treaty of Ghent had been signed and hostilities had officially ended.

In December 1817, President James Monroe authorized Jackson to lead an offensive against the Seminole and Creek Indians in Georgia and Florida, sparking the First Seminole War. Jackson ordered his troops to destroy Seminole settlements, capture a Spanish fort, and execute two British citizens whom Jackson blamed for supporting the Seminoles against white people. In 1819, the Spanish ceded all of Florida to the United States in the Adams-Onís—or Transcontinental—Treaty.

The election of 1828 and the Bank War
The presidential election of 1828 pitted incumbent John Quincy Adams against Andrew Jackson. Adams was the candidate of the National Republicans, while the party that arose around Jackson became known as the Jacksonian Democrats, or simply, the Democrats.
Answer:
The child's reading level is at the 3.4th percentile.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
You do some research and determine that the reading rates for their grade level are normally distributed with a mean of 90 words per minute and a standard deviation of 24 words per minute.
This means that 
You find an individual that reads 46.4 word per minute. At what percentile is the child's reading level?
The percentile is the p-value of Z when X = 46.4, multiplied by 100. So
has a p-value of 0.034.
0.034*100 = 3.4
The child's reading level is at the 3.4th percentile.
