Hello, this evening. Hope your day went well. Mine was long as usual, just got home at dark.
Do you know anything about Geometry? I hope so. Have a lot of it.

#203 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 19:29:50

I hope it is a good day. I heard an old saying one time "any day above ground is a good one." Sometimes though i wonder.
See you later.

It is late and I am getting sleepy.

I have to turn an argumentative essay on Friday that's  not written yet. I will fit it in on Thursday. I am digging my way through math and thankful for your help.

I clicked it again and it reflected the right side was 1.2

I have about twenty minutes left for the night. How about another one:
Take your pick: It will help me either way.

The distance between City A and City B is 500 miles. On a certain wall map, this is represented by a length of 1.9 ft. On the map how man feet would there be between City C and City D, two cities that are actually 700 miles apart?
On the map, City C and City D are____feet apart.
(Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a decimal.

Find the measure of the supplement of a 77* angle.
The measure of the supplement of a 77* angle is ____*
(Simplify of course) LOL

#206 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 18:42:59

yes, it is the right one. Want another?

#207 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 18:39:11

Yes, that's the way I typed it in. It is obviously not wrong or it would say so, but there again it will switch over after one more.

#208 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 18:27:35

It won't take it. I have no idea why not. It gave no reason. It just said try again. One more try left.

#209 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 18:10:57

I missed it. It gave me a new one. I wish I had seen it.

#210 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 18:08:09

It switched on me.

5k - 2
________ >2

    -4

#211 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 18:05:32

yes, it is probably the way i typed it in. I have one more try.

#212 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 17:56:53

the left side is correct. It says the right one is not.

#213 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 17:38:40

yes. 5k - 4 is the numerator (so to speak)

5k - 4
_______ >4
    -9

#214 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 17:25:42

Hello, here is the message that popped up with that one:

"Neither end of the intervals is correct. Eliminate fractions by multiplying both sides of the inequality by a common denominator. Use the multiplication property inequality in the form k> constant or k< constant."

#215 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 17:00:04

Thank you so much.
Solve the inequality, giving its solution set in both interval and graph forms.
5k-4/-9 >4
The solution set in interval form is (___, ___)

I noticed earlier the instructor gave the class Geometry homework, for the last week of classes. Now, that  will be hit or miss. I have never taken it before. I'm also working on that finance project in there. My calculator has been busy all night. LOL

#216 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 16:37:21

It took nicely. Thank you!
Solve the inequality, giving its solution set in both interval and graph forms. (i can do the graph.)
-7 (z - 6)> 3z - 8
(Simplify your answers. Type an integer or a decimal when needed)

#217 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 16:26:05

It says: The solution set in interval notation is_____ _____. So they want it in interval notation.
So if I change the bracket, it will work ya think?

#218 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 16:08:28

A message popped up:
To solve the inequality, you need to get y alone on the left side by using the addition and multiplication properties of inequality.
Strange problem.

#219 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 15:37:30

I have to go back to school tomorrow. I go full time three days a week and it seems like a long time. I wish the clock would stop and let me catch up.

#220 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 15:20:13

Thank you!
5/6 (6y -1) _> 6/5 (5y-3)

#221 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 14:43:44

Solve:
-2 <6 - 2x <__ 8
The solution set in interval notation is ____, _____
(Simplify your answer)

#222 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 14:13:49

Yes, that's correct, just as it's written. Thank you.

#223 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 13:51:48

Exactly!
and one related beside it.
Solve and graph, but I can graph it.
-6 <4 - 2x <_ 14
The solution set in interval notation is [    ,   )
Thank you.

#224 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 13:06:28

You were exact with the 200 miles problem.

Solve the inequality, giving its solution set in both interval and graph forms.
-22< (line under the < 2x - 3 < (line under the<)  1
The solution set in interval form is [____, ____] (two numbers. The first is -infinity i think.
Thank you.,

Your avatar looks nice.

#225 Re: Help Me ! » Algebra word problems » 2011-04-26 12:47:38

how many? I wondered where you were.
