Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First get the answer to -3n - 4 = 2

-3n - 4 + 4 = 2 + 4

-3n = 6

n = 6/-3

n = -2

That answer is the only one that is permitted. It is the only one that completely satisfies the equation.

Now when you do the inequality, look what happens.

-3n - 4 < 2 Add 4 to both sides.

-3n-4+ 4 < 2+4

-3n < 6 Now there are a bunch of ways (2) to solve this.

No matter which way you do it, the arrow will change.

-3n/-3 > 6/-3

n > - 2

That means that any number that is greater than - 2 will satisfy the inequality.

So n = 0 will work. Even n = - 1 will work. Anything bigger than -2 will work. The equation does not provide that kind of latitude.

Select the three ratios that represent the number of red cars to blue cars.

Lorico [155]

Three ratios that represent the number of red cars to blue cars are

2 : 3

6 : 9

8 : 12

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

Number of Red Cars = 4

Number of Blue Cars = 6

<u>Asked:</u>

Ratio = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>Number of Red Cars = R</em>

<em>Number of Blue Cars = B</em>

The ratio that represent the number of red cars to blue cars is :

$R : B = 4 : 6$

We can find other ratio by dividing or multiplying the above comparison with the same number :

$R : B = (4/2) : (6/2) = 2 : 3$

$R : B = (4 \times 2) : (6 \times 2) = 8 : 12$

$R : B = (4 \times \frac{3}{2}) : (6 \times \frac{3}{2}) = 6 : 9$

$\texttt{ }$

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

Three ratios that represent the number of red cars to blue cars are:

2 : 3

6 : 9

8 : 12

An European style café latte uses 1.5oz of espresso and 8oz of milk. You accidentally add 12oz of milk to 1.5oz of espresso. How

ELEN [110]

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The one thing that changes in the problem is the milk. It goes from 8 oz. to 12 oz., so we are going to use the oz count to determine the amount of espresso. Since the amount of milk rose, so is the amount of espresso. Now, you take the larger number and divide it by the smaller number (12 / 8 = 1.5). This answer will tell you by what multiple it increased by. Once you have the multiple it increased by, you multiply that answer (1.5) by the other unknown changing number, so 1.5 x 1.5. Do this and you get 2.5.

Use the relationship between the angles in the

erastovalidia [21]

The 3 angles when added together make a straight line which is 180 degrees. To find x subtract the 2 known angles from 180.

The answer would be x = 180 - (67 + 52)
