Mathematics

7 0

Answer:

The largest integer value that makes the inequality true is 9.

General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality

Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify.</em>

1x - 8 < 2x + 1

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><u><em>x</em></u>

  1. Simplify:                                                                                                            x - 8 < 2x + 1
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides:                        -8 < x + 1
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 1 on both sides:                        -8 < x
  4. Rewrite:                                                                                                           x > -8

∴ we see that any number <em>x greater than -8</em> would work as a solution to the inequality. That would mean the next largest integer, 9, would be our answer.

49/6 into a mixed number
mote1985 [20]
49/6 into a mixed number would be 8 1/6. This is because you would see how many times 6 can go into 49. Since 6 times 8= 48, you subtract that from 49. You are left with one. You put the number you multiplied 6 by as the whole number and the leftover one over six. I hope this helps!

Compute 33(0.5) - 6(0.5) - 7/2.
lora16 [44]
Hi there! The answer is 10.

33(0.5) - 6(0.5) -  \frac{7}{2}
We can use PEMDAS (Parenthesis, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract) to find our answer.

Since we cannot work inside the parenthesis in this question and since we don't have exponents, we can move on to multiplying.
16.5 - 3 -  \frac{7}{2}

Our next step would be subtracting. To make the process of subtracting some easier, I'll first change the fraction into a decimal.
16.5 - 3 - 3.5

Finally subtract.
13.5 - 3.5 = 10

The answer is 10.
~ Hope this helps you!
