Answer:
At most, Liam can only buy lunch for 6 people.
Step-by-step explanation:
It isn't going to be a decimal answer because there can't be half of a person
All you have to do is divide 50 by 8 and round down because you don't want to spend more than 50 dollars.
Writing it mathematically, it would be:
p
6
<span>-2x – 4 < 10
add 4 to both sides
-2x - 4 + 4 < 10 + 4
simplify
-2x < 14
divide both sides by -2
-2x/-2 < 14/-2
simplify
x < -7</span>
Answer:
12x -y = -87
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start with the 2-point form of the equation of a line and manipulate it to give you the standard form.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (-9 -3)/(-8 -(-7))(x -(-7)) +3
y = (-12/-1)(x +7) +3
y = 12x +84 +3
-12x +y = 87 . . . . . subtract the x-term
12x -y = -87 . . . . . . make the leading coefficient positive (per standard form)
This is the solution to your question.
So 30/48=15/(x+9)
this could be easily solved by recognizing the proportion (the other way is usiing full algebra and doing multiply both sides by 48(x+9) and then divide both sides by 30 then subtract 9)
30 is 2 times of 15
therefor 48 is 2 times of (x+9)
48=2 times (x+9)
divide both sides by 2
24=x+9
subtract 9
15=x
x=15
