Four more than a number is more than 13

4+x>13

x>9

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement represents an inequality. To solve for the missing number first write out the inequality algebrically.

"Four more" implies that 4 is being added to the number. Another way to "a number" is to use the variable, x. So, the left side of the inequality is 4+x. Then, it says that this is "more than" 13. Thus, the greater than sign, >, should be used. This means that the final inequality is 4+x>13.

Next, you can solve the inequality by subtracting 4 from both sides. This gives  x>9.

step-by-step explanation:

not really sure

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
