Amelia, Luis, Shauna, and Clarence used different approaches to solve the inequality
7.2b + 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1.

Amelia started by subtracting 7.2b from both sides to get 6.5 > –2.4b – 8.1.
Luis started by subtracting 4.8b from both sides to get 2.4b + 6.5 < – 8.1.
Shauna started by subtracting 6.5 from both sides to get 7.2b > 4.8b – 14.6.
Clarence started by adding 8.1 to both sides to get 7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b.
Which student’s first step was incorrect, and why?

What is the counter example for the conditional below? if a number is divisible by 6, then it is divisible by 18.

Answers

Answer:

24 is divisible 6 but not 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement in the question is not true. So a counterexample is an example of the statement being false. Consider 24. 24 is divisible by 6, but 24 is not divisible by 18.

The counter example for the expression where a number is divisible by 6 then alternatively it will be divisible by 18 is when the number is 24 or 30

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Let the number be n

The number n is divisible by 6

And , the number will be divisible by 18 when it is divisible by 6

Substitute the value of n = { 24 , 30 }

The number n = 24 is divisible by 6 but not divisible by 18

And , The number n = 30 is divisible by 6 but not divisible by 18

Hence , the expression is not valid

equation of the line that passes through (7,-1) and (-3,-1)

Answers

Answer:

y = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the y- coordinates of both points are equal, both - 1

This indicates the line is horizontal and parallel to the x- axis with equation

y = c

where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through

The line passes through (7, - 1 ) and (- 3, - 1 ) with y- coordinates - 1 , then

Which numbers between 10 and 99 have digits that differ by 4 and add to 6

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct option is A)

Let a 3-digit number ABC

Case (1)

If A=7, then B  and  C can be any digit but not 7

so, total 9 digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9) can replace B and C

Then total such combinations =1(9)(9)=81

Case (2)

If B=7  then A can be any digit but not  0 and 7, because if A=0 it will be a 2-digit number.

And C can be any digit but not 7

Then total combinations =(8)(1)(9)=72

Case (3)

If C=7  then A can be any digit but not 0 and 7, because if A=0 it will be a 2-digit number.

And B can be any digit but not 7

Then total combinations =(8)(9)(1)=72

So, total numbers between 99 and 1000 which have exactly one of their digits as 7 are =81+72+72=225

PLEASE HELP QUESTION IN PICTURE

Answers

Answer:

b = 55

d = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Part B:

1. We can see that m∠C (25 degrees), the angle with 100 degrees, and ∠B are adjacent angles that add up to 180 degrees.

This means that b + 25 + 100 = 180

2. (Solving equation above)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

[tex]b + (25+100)=180[/tex] [tex]b + 125 = 180[/tex]

Step 2: Subtract 125 from both sides.

[tex]b + 125 - 125 = 180 - 125[/tex] [tex]b = 55[/tex]

Therefore, b = 55.

Part D:

1. The exterior angle theorem states that the exterior angle of a triangle is congruent to the sum of the two opposing interior angles.

This means that 110 = d + 55

2. (Solving)

Step 1: Subtract 55 from both sides.

[tex]110-55 = d + 55-55[/tex] [tex]55 = d[/tex]

Therefore, d = 55.

and y = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] , then

What is the answer to -6n^2 - 5n - 7 = -8

Answers

Answer:

n = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] , n = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

6n² - 5n - 7 = - 8 ( add 8 to both sides )

6n² - 5n + 1 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the product of the factors of the coefficient of the n² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the n- term

product = 6 × 1 = 6 and sum = - 5

The factors are - 3 and - 2

Use these factors to split the n- term

6n² - 3n - 2n + 1 = 0 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

3n(2n - 1) - 1(2n - 1) = 0 ← factor out (2n - 1) from each term

(2n - 1)(3n - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for n

3n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 3n = 1 ⇒ n = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

2n - 1 = 0 ⇒ 2n = 1 ⇒ n = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the missing value, we need to divide 173.1, by 17.31:

173.1 / 17.31 = 10

Dividing the product (173.1) by one value in the equation (17.31) can represent what the missing value is, in order for 17.31 to equal 173.1

Check:

17.31 · 10 = 173.1

(solve using substitution method. MUST SHOW WORK)

Answers

There are 23 sharks and 7 octopi in the aquarium

Let the number of sharks in the aquarium be xLet the number of octopi in the tank be y

If the total number of animals in the tank is 30, therefore;

x + y = 30 ....................... 1

If the total number of legs in the tank is 171 with starfish having 5 legs and Octopus having 8 legs, the required expression will be:

5x + 8y = 171 ................ 2

From equation 1, x = 30 - y ................... 3

Substitute equation 3 into 2 to have:

5(30-y) + 8y = 171

150 - 5y + 8y = 171

3y = 171 - 150

3y = 21

y = 7

Recall that x = 30 - y

x = 30 - 7

x = 23

Hence there are 23 sharks and 7 octopi in the aquarium
