Answer:

x > -5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 (x − 1) < 3/5 (x + 1)

Multiply both sides by 5:

2 (x − 1) < 3 (x + 1)

Distribute:

2x − 2 < 3x + 3

Subtract 2x and 3 from both sides:

-5 < x

Therefore, x > -5.

you have $37.85 do you want to buy some tape that each cost $4.95 write and solve inequality to estimate the greatest number of
ahrayia [7]
Cost of tape: 4.95
no. of tape : x
budget : 37.85

4.95x < 37.85

+++
4.95x  < 37.85
<u>÷4.95      ÷4.95</u>
       x < 7.65

* you have to buy tapes that are less than 7.65 

Assuming you bought 7 tapes.
4.95x    < 37.85
4.95(7) < 37.85
34.65    < 37.85   *inequality is correct

If you buy more than 7 tapes, then, the cost of the tapes will be more than your budget. making the inequality incorrect.

-10=xy + z for x Solve for the indicated variable in each literal equation
Aleksandr-060686 [28]
We start with:
-10 = xy + z

When you want to solve for a certain variable, you generally follow pemdas in reverse, so subtract z from both sides first:
-10 - z = xy

And finally, divide both sides by y:
(-10 - z)/y = x

and there we go! sorry for the badly typed equations, I'm on my phone so there's only so much a can do :( hope I helped, and let me know if you have any questions!

Write a real world problem for: 80-3x=53
Oxana [17]

Answer:

Sam had 80 dollars in his pocket. He was feeling generous, so he handed out equal amount of money to each of his friends. After he handed out the money, he had 53 dollars left. How much did Sam give out to each one of his friends?

Step-by-step explanation:

In this real-world problem, the money he had at the beginning resembles the 80 in the equation. The -3x is the money he gives out to each of his friends. The 53 on the right-hand side is the money he has left after he gives the money away.
