Answer:

Anything under 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anything under 8, (7, 6, 5, 4, etc.) would make the inequality false. "Inequality" means difference in size, degree, circumstances, etc.; lack of equality. ">" means greater than, so, to make the equation false, insert something less than 8.

Hi!

I can help you with joy!

Recall that the sign ">" means "greater than"

So, we need to find a number that would make the inequality false.

Is it 9? Nope, 9 is greater than 8, so 9 would make the inequality true.

So, we need to find a number less than 8.

Is it 7? Yes, 7 is less than 8, so 7 would make the inequality false.

7>8 (False)

Hope it helps!

Enjoy your day!

I think you left out the word half. I am going to assume you meant half. If half the garden is planted with flowers, then you take away half of the area, which would be 36. that leaves you with 36sq.ft. that he has used to plant vegetables

Which ordered pair is a solution to the system of equations y=x+3 and y=x^2-x

Elenna [48]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

$y = x + 3\\y = x ^ 2-x$

Equating the equations we have:

$x ^ 2-x = x + 3\\x ^ 2-x-x-3 = 0\\x ^ 2-2x-3 = 0$

To find the solutions we factor the equation. To do this, we look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in -3 and when added, result in -2.

These numbers are: -3 and +1

$-3 + 1 = -2\\-3 * (+ 1) = - 3$

Thus, the factored equation is:

$(x-3) (x + 1) = 0$

Then, the solutions for the variable "x" are:

$x_ {1} = 3\\x_ {2} = - 1$

We find the solutions for the variable "y":

$y_ {1} = x_ {1} + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6\\y_ {2} = x_ {2} + 3 = -1 + 3 = 2$

Thus, the solutions are:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (3,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (-1,2)$

ANswer:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (3,6)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (-1,2)$

Find the area of the triangle

anzhelika [568]

Answer: 305.9m
Area of a Triangle is 1/2 base X height
So (b)(h) = 2.1m X 19m=39.9m (210 cm = 2.1 m)
Now that we have the base which is 39.9m
We do the sides which is 1/2*28*19=266m
Now that we have the sides, we add the base which is 39.9m and the Height which is 266m, then we get our answer: 305.9m

I hope this helped you. Goodluck, and please give me a Branliest if available. Thanks. :)
