Solve this linear equation 2(x+6)<3x+8

Mathematics
1 answer:
FinnZ [79.3K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x > 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(x + 6) < 3x + 8 ← distribute left side

2x + 12 < 3x + 8 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

- x + 12 < 8 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

- x < - 4

Multiply both sides by - 1, reversing the symbol as a result of multiplying by a negative quantity.

x > 4

Eloise started to solve a radical equation in this way: Square root of negative 2x plus 1 − 3 = x Square root of negative 2x plu
SOVA2 [1]
Eloise made these steps well:
 Square root of negative 2x plus 1 - 3 = x
 Square root of negative 2x plus 1 - 3 + 3 = x + 3
 The error comes in the next step:
 Square root of negative 2x plus 1 = x + 3
 Square root of negative 2x plus 1 -1 = x + 3 - 1
 Square root of negative 2x  = x + 2
 the number one is inside the root, therefore they can not be subtracted.
 answer
 error in the step:
  Square root of negative 2x  = x + 2

7a+(4+5a)=12a+4 <br> use properties and justify each step
V125BC [204]
<span>7a+(4+5a)=12a+4 

The first step to this is to simplify both sides of the equation.

</span><span>You have to combine all of the like terms first...
(7x + 5x) + (4) = 12x + 4
12x + 4 = 12x + 4 

Now the second step is to subtract 12x from both sides....
</span>12x + 4 = 12x + 4 
-12x          -12x

4 = 4

Now you will subtract four from both sides and get....

0=0
