Solve for x in the following inequality: 3(-2x - 4) > 18

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x < -5

Step-by-step explanation:

3 ( -2x - 4 ) > 18

→ Expand the brackets

-6x - 12 > 18

→ Add 12 to both sides

-6x > 30

→ Divide both sides by -6

x < -5

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x< -5}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to solve the following inequality for x.

[tex]3(-2x-4) > 18[/tex]

Solve for x by isolating it and performing the inverse operations.

3 is being multiplied by (-2x-4). The inverse operation of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the inequality by 3.

[tex]\frac {3(-2x-4)}{3} > \frac{18}{3}[/tex]

[tex](-2x-4) > \frac{18}{3}[/tex]

[tex]-2x-4 > 6[/tex]

4 is being subtracted from -2x. The inverse operation of subtraction is addition. Add 4 to both sides of the inequality.

[tex]-2x-4+4 > 6+4 \\[/tex]

[tex]-2x > 10[/tex]

x is being multiplied by -2. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by -2.

[tex]\frac {-2x}{-2} > \frac {10}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]x> \frac {10}{-2}[/tex]

Since we divided by a negative number, the inequality sign must be flipped.

[tex]x< \frac{10}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]x < -5[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

D. The typical value is greater in set A. The spread is greater in set B.​

Step-by-step explanation:

     The typical value is greater in set A.

[] We can see that the red arrow already shows this, but the average (add up all the numbers and divide by number or numbers) in set A is greater than in set B as 7 > 6.

     The spread is greater in set B.​

[] The spread can also be thought of as the range (largest number - smallest number) so the spread is greater than B since 7 > 3.

Answer:

29 / 4 is the 15th term

The dance team held 2 fundraisers to earn money for uniforms. During the second fundraiser, the team raised $450. The team raised a total of $620 for uniforms during both fundraisers. How much money did the dance team raise at the first fundraiser?

Answers

Answer:

The dance team raised 170$ during the first fundraiser

Step-by-step explanation:

to find how much the first fundraiser earned let's make an equation and make the first fundraiser the variable x

The equation would be:

x+450=620

so we would take away 450 from both sides

x+450-450=620-450

which would make the equation

x=170

meaning that the first fundraiser raised 170$

Oscar and Kim have $22.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 30% discount. They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if he has enough to purchase the book, Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Kim takes 70% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Oscar correct? Is Kim correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences, and show your work.




HELLLP ME PLS QUICK

Answers

Answer:

Both Oscar and Kim will have enough to purchase the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Oscar takes 30% of the normal price and subtracts it from the normal price. Out of 100% price he takes 30% so the result is: 100-30%= 70% of the normal price. Oscar's first step has the same result as Kim.

Oscar takes 10% of the discounted price (70%) and adds it back. The price will become 70% + 10%*70%= 77% of original price. Kim multiplies the discounted price with 110%, so the price will be: 70% * 110%= 77%. Both also give the same result.

The final price is 77% of the original, it will be: $28.50* 77%= $21.945

Oscar :

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = 21.95

Kim :

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = 21.95

Answer:

Both Oscar and Kim got the same amount and they both had enough money to buy the book.

Given that,

Oscar and Kim have money to spend at a book fair = $22

Discount for all the students = 30% = 0.30

They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $28.50 plus 10% sales tax.

Book normally sells for = $ 28.50 + 10% sales tax

According to the question,

Oscar takes 30% of $28.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. He takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount.

28.50 - 0.30(28.50) = 28.50 - 8.55 = 19.95

0.10(19.95) + 19.95 = 2 + 19.95 = $21.95

Kim takes 70% = 0.7 of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% = 1.10 of the reduced price.

0.7(28.50) = 19.95

1.10(19.95) = $21.95

Hence, Both Oscar and Kim got the same amount and they both had enough money to buy the book.

Help please: A bus and a train leave a station at the same time, t = 0. The graph shows the bus's distance to the next station over time. The train moves more quickly than the bus. Write an equation of a function that could represent the train's distance to the next station.​

Answers

Answer:

y = (5/2)x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the bus and train are both at the station at time 0, the y-intercept for the new equation is 20. That is one point on the new graph: (0,20) The question said that the train travels faster, that means it spends less time getting to the next station. The existing graph shows the bus got to the next station in 10 minutes, so maybe the train got there in 8 minutes. So another point on the graph is (8,0) We can use a slope formula to calculate the slope of a new line. Or just count squares on the graph (se image) to find the slope. Slope tells how steep a line is, whether the line is going up or down, but also the slope is like directions how to get from one point to another point on the line.

All you need to write an equation is the slope, m and the y-intercept, b and fill those two numbers into the formula y=mx+b Here slope is 5/2 and y-intercept is 20. So you get

y=(5/2)x +20

John and Jennifer want to split a bag of candy, and decide to use the divider-chooser method. The bag contains 100 Snickers, 100 Milky Ways, and 100 Reese's, which John values at $1, $4, and $5 respectively.

If John is the divider, find a possible division that is consistent with his value system.

Answers

If John is the divider then $5 is the consistent value with his share system.

What is a divider chooser?

The essential concept is that an object is divided into pieces by a divider. The remaining participants, referred to as choosers, make bids on the pieces they believe represent fair portions. Each chooser receives the portion that, in their opinion, represents a fair share, with the remaining portion going to the divider.

Given that the bag contains 100 Snickers, 100 Milky ways and 100 Reese's which john values at $1 , $4 and $5 respectively.

That means 1 Snicker, 1 Milky way and 1 Reese's for $0.01 , $0.04 and $0.05 respectively.

Suppose, John splits a bag of candy

a) first half : 50 Snickers, 50 Milky ways and 50 Reese's

b) second half :  50 Snickers, 50 Milky ways and 50 Reese's

The value of both of the half in John's terms ;

50 (0.01) + 50 (0.04) + 50 (0.05) = 0.5 + 2 + 2.5 = 5

Therefore, if John is the divider then $5 is the consistent value with his share system.
