Michael wants to earn at least $26 trimming trees. he charges $7 per hour and pays $9 in equipment fees. what are the possible numbers of hours michael
could trim trees?
use t for the number of hours.
write your answer as an inequality solved for t.

5 Hours

Step-by-step explanation:

7t - 9  ≥ 26

    -9     -9

7t  ≥   35

÷7        ÷7

t  ≤  5

First you are to -9 from -9 and 26.

Second divide 7 from 7 and 35.

Then you should get t ≤ 5.

When you divide when using inequality's the sign ALWAYS flips.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
