Answer:
x = 2.5 or 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3/4.
|5 -x| = 10/4 = 2.5
This resolves to two equations:
- 5 -x = 2.5 ⇒ x = 5 -2.5 = 2.5
- 5 -x = -2.5 ⇒ x = 5 +2.5 = 7.5
The solutions are x = 2.5 or 7.5.
Answer:
20/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Every nth term takes the form of a + n*d, where a is the first term.
So 7th term = (54 = a + 7d), 13th term = (94 = a + 13d).
equate them both:
94 - 13d = 54 - 7d
40 = 6d
d = 40/6
Answer:
8b + 27 ≤ - 29
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of a number can be written as x or in this case as b because it is an unknown number.
b is multipled by 8 so 8b
"and 27" indicates an addition so therefore, 8b + 27
"at most -29" This is a little bit tricky but ultimately it means 8b + 27 cannot be more than -29. Therefore, it must be lesser than.
However there is a line underneath that lesser than sign meaning lesser than or equal to. I believe that "at most" indicates equal to.
Other than the lesser than or equal to sign I'm unsure about, this inequality should be correct.
