X=number of years after 2000.
y=percentage of residents (still) reads newspapers for information
initial value (= y-intercept) = percentage in 2000 = 54%
slope = increase each year = -1.7% (because it is a decrease)
the slope intercept form of the equation is therefore:
y=slope(x)+initial value, or
y=-1.7x+54   (in %)

Solve 7x + 6 < 3(x - 2).
sasho [114]
7x+6=3x-6
    +6       +6
7x+12=3x
-3x       -3x
 4x+12=0
-4x         -4x
 divide both sides by -4 but you have to flip the sign.   
-3>x
or  
{x | x < -3}

What is the solution to the equation? (-9x+5)^1/2=(3+4x)1/2
Phoenix [80]
<span>x in (-oo:+oo)

((5-9*x)^1)/2 = ((4*x+3)^1)/2 // - ((4*x+3)^1)/2

((5-9*x)^1)/2-(((4*x+3)^1)/2) = 0

(5-9*x)/2-((4*x+3)/2) = 0

(5-9*x)/2+(-1*(4*x+3))/2 = 0

5-1*(4*x+3)-9*x = 0

2-13*x = 0

(2-13*x)/2 = 0

(2-13*x)/2 = 0 // * 2

2-13*x = 0

2-13*x = 0 // - 2

-13*x = -2 // : -13

x = -2/(-13)

x = 2/13

x = 2/13</span>
