Assuming we're dealing with 
, which is the same as writing (x+2)/(-5) < 4, then the answer is choice C.
We multiply both sides by -5 and this will flip the inequality sign.
-------------------------------------
Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign.
An example would be saying -2x < 10 leads to x > -5
What we can do is divide both sides by -2 and flip the inequality sign, or we could follow the steps shown below
- -2x < 10
- 0 < 10+2x ... adding 2x to both sides
- -10 < 2x ... subtracting 10 from both sides; this is one way to see why the sign flip happens
- 2x > -10
- x > -10/2 ..... dividing both sides by 2
- x > -5
answer:
a. scarf costs today = $6
b. scarf costs 3 days from now = $3
step-by-step explanation:
- 1/2 off means you would multiply the amount by 1/2 then subtract
a. original price of scarf: $12
12 X 1/2 = 6
12 - 6 = 6
— scarf costs today = $6
- do the same thing but this time it is a different number
b. 12 X 3/4 = 9
12 - 9 = 3
— scarf costs 3 days from now = $3
Answer:
<h2>width = 6 feet</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
let l be the length of the rectangle
let w be the width of the rectangle
The statement
The length of a rectangle is 6 feet more than three times the width of the
rectangle is written as
l = 6 + 3w
From the question
l = 24 feet
Substitute the value into the above formula and solve for the width
That's
24 = 6 + 3w
3w = 24 - 6
3w = 18
Divide both sides by 3
w = 6
Therefore
<h3>width = 6 feet</h3>
