How do I solve this?

Answer A represents this

x <= -3  ;  x > 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate x on each of the inequalities:

4 x + 4 <= - 8

subtract 4 from both sides

4 x <= - 12

divide both sides by 4 to isolate x completely (notice 4 is positive, so there is NO flipping of the inequality symbol)

x <= -3

This inequality is represented by shading the left section of the number line starting at x = -3 (make sure you draw a SOLID dot to mae clear that the point x = -3 is also included in your drawing.

The other inequality:

11 x - 11 > 88

add 11 to both sides

11 x > 99

divide both sides by 11 to isolate x (notice again that 11 is a positive number, so the inequality doesn't change with the division)

x > 9

This inequality is represented by shadowing the right hand side of the number line starting at x = 9. Make sure you draw an EMPTY dot on the number 9 to indicate that x = 9 is NOT included.

step-by-step explanation:

the options are kind of confusing. i can tell you what i see going on here when i look at the graph.

the class and exam medians are closely related, and it looks like the low outlier on the exam did pull the median lower. [tex][/tex]

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional
