Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.
Answer:
Week 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Ben has $250 in the beginning. He saves $150 per week.
y = 150x + 250
Tim has $1,650 in the beginning. He spends $200 per week.
y = 1650 - 200x
We are trying to find which x-value produces the same y-value for both equations. You can do this by setting both equations equal to each other.
150x + 250 = 1650 - 200x
(150x + 250) + 200x = (1650 - 200x) + 200x
350x + 250 = 1650
(350x + 250) - 250 = (1650) - 250
350x = 1400
(350x)/350 = (1400)/350
x = 4
By week 4, they will have the same amount of money.
Answer: 0.0170
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The mean amount purchased by a typical customer at Churchill’s Grocery Store is $23.50, with a standard deviation of $5.00.
i.e. 
We assume the distribution of amounts purchased follows the normal distribution.
Sample size : n=50
Let 
be the sample mean.
Formula : 
Then, the probability that the sample mean is at least $25.00 will be :-
Hence, the likelihood the sample mean is at least $25.00= 0.0170

Answer:
k = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Look for the missing factors that make all of the factors of 60k be squares.
60 = 2² × 3 × 5
The factors 3 and 5 each have an odd exponent (1), so those two factors must be part of k.
60k = 2² × 3 × 5 × k
is a perfect square when ...
3 × 5 = k = 15
For k = 15, 60k = 900 = 30²
