Find a number that is exactly halfway between 1 and 27

14

Step-by-step explanation:

A number that is exactly halfway between 1 and 27 is the middle number

In other words, we want to find the median between 1 and 27

Median = (x + y) / 2

Let

x = 1

y = 27

Median = (x + y) / 2

= (1 + 27) / 2

= 28/2

= 14

Therefore, the number between 1 and 27 is 14

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
