Remark
The key step is just to subtract 5 from both sides. The pointed of the inequality still points away from the variable and towards the number. As long as that remains true, the correct answer can be found.
Solution
2.7 ≤ b + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.
2.7 - 5 ≤ b
- 2.3 ≤ b Write with the variable on the left.
b ≥ - 2.3 <<<< answer
2y=2_8
2y=_6
Divide both sides by 2 so that y can stand alone
Therefore y=_3
Refer to the figure shown below.
The coordinates of point m are (2,5).
Let (x,y) = the coordinates of pont n.
Because mn = 4, use the Pythagorean theorem to obtain
(x - 2)² + (y - 5)² = 4²
This represents a circle with center at (2,5) and radus = 4.
Answer:
Possible coordinates for n lie on the circle (x-2)² + (y-5)² = 16.
