Find two values for x that make the inequality true.

Mathematics

1 answer:

lara [203]2 years ago

5 0

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x<2 means -5x is less than 2, so a decimal under 0.4 (but not equal to) such as 0.3, 0.2, and 0.1 would all make the inequality true

Ex. Let x = 0.2

-5(0.2) < 2

1 < 2

1 is less than 2, so the inequality is true

Simplify -|-12| plz help

mash [69]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

-|-12| = (-1)*| -12 | = - 12.

Recall the meaning of the absolute value function: It always returns a zero or positive result. Here, | -12 | = +12. Now, if there's a negative sign in front

of | -12 |, the final answer is -12.

A runner increased her distance from 9 miles to 12.5 miles a week. Find the percent increase in mileage.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

39 percent is increase in mileage.

Thus, the correct option is B. 39%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A runner increased her distance from 9 miles to 12.5 miles a week.

Now, to find percent increase in mileage.

Previous mileage = 9 miles.

Present mileage = 12.5 miles.

Mileage increase = 12.5 - 9 = 3.5 miles.

Now, to get the percent increase in mileage:

$\frac{Mileage\ increased}{previous\ mileage} \times 100$

$=\frac{3.5}{9} \times 100$

$=\frac{350}{9}$

$=38.88\%.$

Approximately the percent increase = 39%.

Therefore, 39% is increase in mileage.

Thus, the correct option is B. 39%.

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (3,-2) and (4,6) in slope intercept form.

noname [10]

Hey!

------------------------------------------------

They already give us the slope, so we can solve the y-intercept.

We can use (3, -2).

y = 8x + b

-2 = 8(3) + b

-2 = 24 + b

-2 - 24 = 24 + b - 24

-26 = b

------------------------------------------------

Hence, the answer is $\Large\boxed{\mathsf{y~=~8x~+~-26}}$

------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!

Use the coordinates of the labeled point to find the point-slope equation of the line

koban [17]

Answer:

A. y + 1 = -2(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope equation is : y - y1 = m (x -x1)

remember m= slope value

the given point is (2, -1) therefore we can substitute the values in:

y + 1 = m(x -2)

now to make sure our answer is complete we will solve for the slope:

looking back at the graph, the y-intercept value is 3, therefore we have a point of (0,3) and (2, -1)

with any two points you can determine a slope.

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

therefore :

-1 -3 / 2 - 0

-4 / 2 = -2

therefore our m value is -2

this makes the completed point-slope equation:

y + 1 = -2 (x - 2) or A
