the answer is x is greater then -7

to find this add 4 to each side

then divide by -2.

since you divided both sides by a negative the symbol flips and you get x is greater then -7

Answer:

x > - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

given

- 2x - 4 < 10 ( add 4 to both sides )

- 2x < 14 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

Remembering to reverse the inequality symbol when dividing/multiplying by a negative quantity.

x > - 7 ← reverse the symbol

Consider the square root function f(x) = sqrt x + 2 + 1 to complete the table of values below. find each missing value and then

Scrat [10]

Given the function :

$f(x)=\sqrt[]{x+2}+1$

We need to find each missing value

Given x = -3 , -2 , -1 , 2 , 7

So, substitute with each value of x to find the corresponding value of f(x)

$x=-3\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{-3+2}+1=\sqrt[]{-1}+1$

So, there is no value for f(x) at x = -3 (the function undefined because the square root of -1)

$\begin{gathered} x=-2\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{-2+2}+1=\sqrt[]{0}+1=0+1=1 \\ \\ x=-1\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{-1+2}+1=\sqrt[]{1}+1=1+1=2 \\ \\ x=2\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{2+2}+1=\sqrt[]{4}+1=2+1=3 \\ \\ x=7\rightarrow f(x)=\sqrt[]{7+2}+1=\sqrt[]{9}+1=3+1=4 \end{gathered}$

the graph of the function and the points will be as shown in the following image :
