Which of the following statements correctly uses the distributive property? -2(15 - 3) = -2(15) + (-2)(3)
-3(12 + 5) = -3(12) - (-3)(5)
7(9 - 8) = 7(9) - 8
9(-7 + 6) = 9(-7) + 9(6)

1/5^2 = 7.56/45

3 is greater then both of those numbers

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
