Answer:
C. x > 3
Step-by-step explanation:
As long as you don't multiply or divide by any negative numbers*, <em>you can solve this the same way you would an equation</em>.
3x +2 > x +8
3x > x +6 . . . . . . subtract 2
2x > 6 . . . . . . . . subtract x
x > 3 . . . . . . . . . .divide by 2; matches choice C
_____
* The complete rule is "as long as you don't use any order-changing operations, ...". There are some functions you can apply to both sides of the inequality that will change the ordering. Multiplication or division by a negative number is only one of many.
1 < 2
-1 > -2 . . . . . multiplication by -1 reverses the order

These statistics are impossible: all students who ride bike and use crossing guard ride a bike, so the proportion of students who ride a bike and use the crossing guard must be less than or equal to the proportion of students who ride a bike. This is not true in the given stats; 0.12 > 0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
25m + 10b = 400
not enough info to solve for m or b. but that's the equation you would use.
