Let x be the unknown number.

7x + 668 < 2000     => 7x plus 668 is less than 2000

where:
7x => x represents the number of cans to be collected in 7 days
668 is the number of cans already collected.
2000 is the target number of cans.

7x  +  668    <    2000
 <u>       - 668           -668</u>
7x                <   1332
<u>÷7                        ÷7</u>
x                  <    190.30
or
x < 190

To check:

7x + 668 < 2000
7(190) + 668 < 2000
1330 + 668 < 2000
1998 < 2000

Answer:

7x+668>2000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Lincoln middle school plans to collect more than 2,000 cans of food

They have already collected 668 cans

To Find:  WRITE AN INEQUALITY to find numbers of cans the school can collect on each of the final 7 days of the drive to meet this goal.

Solution :

Let x be the number of cans collected on each day.

Cans collected on 7 days = 7x

Since they already collected 668 cans

So they have total cans = 7x+668

We are given that they are required to collect more than 2000 cans

⇒7x+668>2000

Thus this is the required inequality to find the numbers of cans collect on each final 7 days of drive

Now, 7x+668>2000

⇒ 7x>2000-668

⇒ 7x>1332

⇒ x>\frac{1332}{7}

⇒ x>190.28

Thus they require to collect more than approx. 191 cans each day

-3 raised to the power 0=
son4ous [18]

Given:

The statement is "-3 raised to the power 0".

To find:

The value of the given expression.

Solution:

We know that a raised to the power b can be written as a^b.

Any non zero number raised to the power 0 is always 1. It means,

a^0=1, where a\neq 0.

-3 raised to the power 0 =(-3)^0

                                         =1

Therefore, the value of the given statement is 1.

Use the midpoint formula to find the midpoint between H(3, 9) and J(9, -2).
TiliK225 [7]

Hello!

The midpoint formula is basically an average of x and y.

It is also written as: (\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}} {2},\frac{y_{1}+ y_{2}} {2}).

With the formula above, we can substitute the given points into the equation, and simplify.

(\frac{3 +9}{2}, \frac{9+(-2)}{2}) = (\frac{12}{2}, \frac{7}{2}) = (6, 3.5)

Therefore, the midpoint between points H and J is choice D, (6, 3.5).

______________________________

⚫We have to find out the value of 1 \frac{2}{3} \div 6

⚫So we have to convert it like this first,

\frac{5}{3} \div 6

⚫Do reciprocal to change the sign of divide into multiply

\frac{5}{3} \times \frac{1}{6}

⚫By doing this, we will get

\frac{6}{18}

Simplify this,

\frac{1}{3}

⚫⚫So our answer will be \frac{1}{3}
