Lets just say the number is equal to x.
-1(2x+3)=2*(-4x-3)
Distribute on both sides
-2x-3=-8x-6
Add 3 to both sides
-2x=-8x-6
Add 8x to boths sides
6x=-6
Divide Both Sides by -1
x=-1
The numbers is -1.
Answer:
Lisa will not be able to feed both tanks the same amount of food.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is incomplete, here is the complete question :
"Lisa pet shop has 2 fish tank . Tank A contains smaller fish who were fed 1 gram of food each per day. Tank B contains larger fish who are fed 2 gram each per day. If tank B contains 2/3 the number of fish Tank A contains,will Lisa ever feed both tanks the same amount of food."
Let the number of fish in tank A = f
Lisa fed 1 gram of food each per day = f × 1 = f
So,the number of fish in tank B = 
Lisa fed 2 gram of food each per day = 
If both the tanks are fed with same amount of food then


⇒ 3f = 4f
⇒ 3 = 4
But 3 ≠ 4
Therefore, Lisa will not be able to feed both tanks the same amount of food.
You forgot to mention the graph.
So, I make the graph of both given functions and you will compare your graph with them.
First, y= -x-1 put y=0 you get point (-1,0) called x-intercept
put x=0 you get point (0,-1) called y-intercept
join both the points, you will get the graph
Graph is attached in the picture.
Second, y= x+1
put y=0 you get point (-1,0) called x-intercept
put x=0 you get point (0,1) called y-intercept
join both the points, you will get the graph
Graph is attached in the picture.
it would be n is greater than or equal to -5
-2n greater than or equal to 10
-n greater than or equal to 5
n greater than or equal to -5
