B= the base of the object
Y=0.40x because the sale which is 40% off would be on x amount of shirts
We need to subtract: the scientist needed 57,500 dollars, but already had 32,506, so we need to find what's left: 57,500 - 32,506 = 24,992 dollars
Your answer is A. Hope that helps! :)
y < - 8 or y > 4
inequalities of the form | x | > a always have solutions of the form
x < - a or x > a
we have to solve
y + 2 < - 6 or y + 2 > 6
y + 2 < - 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
y < - 8
or
y + 2 > 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
y > 4
these can be combined using interval notation
y ∈ (- ∞, - 8 ) ∪ (4, ∞ )
As a check
substitute chosen values of x from each interval
y = - 10 : | - 10 + 2 | = | - 8 | = 8 > 6 this is true
y = 12 : | 12 + 2 | = | 14 | = 14 > 6 which is also true
15:24
divide both sides by 3
b. 5:8
for 6:30
divide both sides by 6
1:5
