Answer:
b. -3
Step-by-step explanation:
9(2x+1) < 9x-18
(distribute the 9)
18x+9 <9x-18
(subtract 9 from both sides)
18x<9x-27
(subtract 9x from both sides)
9x<-27
(divide both sides by 9)
x<-3

Answer:
D. -17%
Step-by-step explanation:
The change from March to April is (April - March) = (100 -120) = -20. As a fraction of the March bill, that is ...
-20/120 = -1/6
As a percentage, that change is ...
-1/6 × 100% ≈ -16.667% ≈ -17%
The electric bill changed by about -17% from March to April.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
Water went up 4%; groceries went up about 14%, and restaurant changed by -15%.
The percentage change is found by ...
% change = ((new amount)/(original amount) -1) × 100%
Above, we have rearranged this to ...
% change = ((new amount) -(original amount))/(original amount) × 100%
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter (p) = 8 + 17 + 15 = 40
semi-perimeter (s) = p/2 = 20
Area = square root of s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c) where a,b,c are the sides of the triange by Herons formula.
Therefore, area = 20(20-8)(20-15)(20-17) = square root of 3600 = 60
Answer:
n = 5m + 10 = 5(m + 2), since m + 2 is an integer, then the n is divisible by 5.
