You can simply the above equation
1. 2x<7 = x<3.5 which means in order to satisfy the above notation the value of x has to be less that 3.5
2. -2x<7 = x<-3.5 it means in order to satisfy this notation the value of x has to be more than 3.5 in magnitude having - sign ..

When solving inequalities, dividing by a negative number requires you to fliip the sign.

So to solve 2x < 7 you simply divide by 2

x < 7/2

However with -2x < 7, you have to flip the sign

x > -7/2

A=1/2h(a+b) solve for b
vovangra [49]

Answer:

b=2A/h-a

Step-by-step explanation:

A=1/2h(a+b)

a+b=A/(1/2h)

a+b=A/(h/2)

a+b=(A/1)(2/h)

a+b=2A/h

b=2A/h-a
