Answer:
We have:
x < 4 AND x > a.
if a = 4 and we use an "or" instead of the "and" we have:
x < 4 or x > 4.
This is:
"x is larger than 4 or smaller than 4."
Then the solution of this is all the real numbers except the value x = 4.
The set of solutions can be written as:
{xI x ∈ R \ [4]}
Where this reads:
"x belongs to the set of the reals minus the number 4".
Or we also could write it as:
x ∈ (-∞, 4) ∪ (4, ∞)
Where we have two open ends in the "4" side, so the value x = 4 does not belong to that set.
Answer:
$66
Step-by-step explanation:
It can be convenient to assign a different variable to the amount of money each spent. We can call the amounts spent by Seedevi, Georgia, and Amy "s", "g", and "a", respectively.
The problem statement tells us ...
s = (1/2)g
s = a +6
s + g + a = 258
__
The problem statement asks for the amount Seedevi spent, so we need to find the value of s. It is convenient to write the other variables in terms of s:
g = 2s
a = s -6
Then the sum is ...
s + (2s) +(s -6) = 258
4s = 264 . . . . . . . . . . . add 6, simplify
s = 66 . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4
Seedevi spent $66.
