Answer: x < -5 1/2 or x < -11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2 ( 4x + 1 ) < 3 ( 2x - 3 )

8x + 2 < 6x - 9

8x - 6x < -9 -2

2x < -11

x < -11/2

x < -5 1/2

Process:

First, we are going to distribute in the parentheses.

2(4x+1) < 3(2x-3)

8x+2 < 6x-9

Now we are going to combine the like terms. (It is easier to move smaller terms to the bigger ones)

8x+2 < 6x-9

-6x+2 < -6x-9

= 2x+2 < -9

(There are more like terms!)

2x+2 < -9

2x+9 < +9

= 2x+11 < 0

2x+11 < 0

2x-11 < -11

= 2x < -11

Lastly, divide to get 'x' by itself

2x < -11

---- < ----

2 < 2

= x < -5.5

So, 'x' is less than -5.5.

Hope this helped:)

A candy bar box is in the shape of a triangular prism. The volume of the box is 2,400 cubic centimeters.

Part A)

Using the Pythagorean theorem you can find the height:

17^2 = 8^2 + x^2

289 = 64 +x^2

x^2 = 289 - 64

x^2 = 225

x = √225

x = 15

The height is 15 cm.

Part B)

Area of the triangular side: 1/2 x 16 x 15 = 120 square cm.

There are two triangles so 120 x 2 = 240 square cm.

One side = 20 x 17 = 340

There are 2 sides so 340 x 2 = 680 square cm.

The bottom is 16 x 20 = 320 square cm.

Total cardboard needed: 240 + 680 + 320 = 1,240 square cm.

Mark the points with the coordinates (4, 14), (22, 6), and (16, 18). Connect the points to form a triangle. and what type of tri

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the points (4, 14), (22, 6), and (16, 18).

It is important to remember that he first number of each point is the x-coordinate of that point and the second number of each one of them is the y-coordinate of that point.

Therefore, knowing the above, you can mark each point, as you can observe in the image attached, and then you can connect the points to form the triangle shown in the image.
