Sample response: Both inequalities use the division property to isolate the variable, y. When you divide by a negative number, like –7, you must reverse the direction of the inequality sign. When you divide by a positive number, like 7, the inequality sign stays the same. The solution to the first inequality is y > -23, and the solution to the second inequality is y <>

Step-by-step explanation:

-7y > 161

7y < 161

7÷7=1

161÷7=23

y=23

7y > -161

7÷7=1

-161÷7=-23

y=-23

Bonus if she sold 1 bedcover = Rs. Z

Bonus if she sold 46 bedcover = Rs. Z × 46

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Darius is correct if only the median score is considered.

Step-by-step explanation:

Darius scores are; 96, 54,120, 87, 123

arrange the scores in increasing order;

54,87,96,120,123

mean = (54+87+96+120+123)/5 =480/5 =96

median =96

Barb's scores are  92,94,96,98,110

mean=(92,94,96,98,110)/5 =490/5=98

median score=96

⇒if the median score only is considered; then it is a tie because the score is 96 in both players.

An 8 foot length of 4 inch wide crown molding costs $16. How much will it cost to buy 40 feet of crown molding?
malfutka [58]
Converting feet to inches, 8*12=96 and 96*4=384. Next, 40*12=480. Since 384*x (if x represents the cost per inch of crown molding)=16*100=1600 cents due to that for every inch, we add x amount of money, we can find x to be 1600/384=800/192=400/96=200/48=100/24=50/12=25/6 by simply dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 each time. Since we add x amount of money for every inch, and we have 480 inches, 480*x=480*25/6=2000 cents=2000/100=20 dollars is our answer

Chevy has some yarn that he wants to use to make hats and scarves. Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn a
professor190 [17]

Answer:

h + s = 15

2h + s = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hats Chevy made = h

Let the number of scarves made by Chevy = s

From the statement of the question, " Chevy made a total number of 15 items"

Equation will be  h + s = 15

Amount of yarn used to make one hat = 0.2 kilograms

So amount of yarn used to make "h"hats = 0.2h kilograms

Similarly Amount of yarn used to make one scarf = 0.1 kilograms

So amount of yarn used to make "h" scarves = 0.1s kilograms

Another statement states " Chevy wants to use 2 kilograms of yarn to make these items".

Equation for this statement will be,

0.2h + 0.1s = 2

OR 2h + s = 20 [By multiplying the equation by 10]

Therefore, system of the equations will be

h + s = 15

2h + s = 20
