The sum of negative 45 times a number
and twelve is 117. What is the number?

-2.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be denoted as "x"

-45x + 12 = 117

-45x = 117-12

-45x = 105

x = 105/-45

x= -2.33

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice
