Answer:

x ≥ 8 or x ≤ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(see attached graphic for reference)

|x-5| ≥ 3   (expand absolute value expression)

(x-5) ≥ 3

x ≥ 3 + 5

x ≥ 8  (first answer)

or

(x-5) ≤ -3

x ≤ -3 + 5

x ≤ 2 (second answer)

2x+5y=12
anastassius [24]
Y = -3x - 1......so we sub in -3x - 1 in for y in the other equation

2x + 5y = 12
2x + 5(-3x - 1) = 12....now distribute the 5 through the parenthesis
2x - 15x - 5 = 12...add 5 to both sides
2x - 15x = 12 + 5..combine like terms
-13x = 17...divide both sides by -13
x = -17/13
now sub in -17/13 for x in the other equation
y = -3x - 1
y = -3(-17/13) - 1
y = 51/13 - 1
y = 51/13 - 13/13
y = 38/13

so the solution is (-17/13, 38/13)

A recipe will make 10 pancakes that are 8 inches in diameter. If you decide to
pashok25 [27]
10 pancakes produces 8 inches in diameter. 
The area of 1 pancake is 
Area = pi * r^2
Area = pi * 4^2
Area = 50.27 in^2
Then multiply it by 10
Total area = 502.65 in^2

A smaller pancake
Area = pi * r^2
Area = pi * 2^2
<span>Area = 12.56 in^2

Divide 502.65 by 12.56
= 502.65 / 12.65
= 39.74

So there are 39 pancakes.
