Answer:
Explanation:
Follow PEMDAS in reverse to undo what's happening to x.
We first add 1 to both sides, then divide both sides by 5 to fully isolate x.
Refer to the steps below to see what I mean.
The inequality sign stays the same the entire time. The only time it flips is when you divide both sides by a negative number.
The solution set for x is anything -3 or larger.
If x was an integer, then we could say the solution set is {-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ...}
Hello, remember you need to write complete questions in order to get good and exact answers. Here you haven't provided any fractions, so I'll give you my own fractions.
The first fraction is:
The second fraction is:
So let's say that difference is:
Therefore, the result is:
The representation of this problem is shown using the number line below. As you can see, we have written both 1/2 and 1/4 and the difference is also indicated giving the result 1/4. That is, if we walk from 1/4 to 1/2 we'll walk 1/4 units.
Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = numerator
Let y = denominator
Decreased by 30% = 100% - 30% = 70% = 70/100 = 0.7
Decreased by 50% = 100% - 50% = 50% = 50/100 = 0.5
1.4 as a percentage = 1.4 x 100 = 140%
Therefore, the percentage increase is 140 - 100 = 40%
