Explain how solving $2x<-8$ is different from solving $-2x<8$ .

Mathematics
1 answer:
miv72 [106K]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

When we divide by a negative value, the sign for the inequality changes.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x < -8, to solve we would divide by 2 and receive x < -4. However, in solving -2x < 8, we would divide by negative 2, which would result in x > -4. Clearly, these sequences provide opposite answers and that is a rule to inequalities, that when dividing by a negative number, we must flip the less than/greater than sign.

A polar bear swims 390 meters at a constant rate in 150 seconds. what is the speed of the polar bear?
worty [1.4K]
The answer is 2.6 m/s

The speed (v) is distance (d) through time (t).
v = d/t

We know:
d = 390 m
t = 150 s

v = d/t
v = 390 m / 150s
v = = 2.6 m/s
