Tell whether the given value is a solution of the inequality. (yes or no)

-2 ≤ k/3; k = -9

 No, it is not a solution

Work Shown:

-2 ≤ k/3

-2 ≤ -9/3

-2 ≤ -3

The last inequality is false because -3 should be smaller than -2 (not the other way around). Use a number line to help see this.

Since the last inequality is false, the original inequality must also be false for that particular k value. Therefore, k = -9 is not a solution.

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
