to graph n > -2, you step 1) set up a number line (make sure -2 is on the number line) step 2) draw an open circle at -2 step 3) shade to the right of the open circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first one.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

we use an open circle because there is no underline under the inequality sign we shade to the right because of the greater than sign

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

hint: this expression c - 0.25c is the same as 1c - 0.25c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

to combine like terms, you just deal with the coefficients (the numbers out front)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you do know i'm the type who doesn't pay attention or do homework so I have no idea what your saying.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

do you see how c = 1c is true?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

1 times any number = same number agreed?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so that means that we can say that c = 1c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so what is 1c - 0.25c

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you're not sure, then what is 1 - 0.25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-_________________-

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

use a calculator or write it out on paper

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

1 - 0.25 = ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.75

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so this means 1c - 0.25c = 0.75c
