2d + 14 ( "d" is the number of days after today, and "14" comes from how many feet deep the water is today)

Solve the following inequality.

Luden [163]

First simplify.
$-\frac{2}{3}x \ \textgreater \ \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\ \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c} \ \textgreater \ -\frac{2x}{3}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:-1\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)} \ \textgreater \ \ \textgreater \ \frac{2x}{3}\ \textless \ -8$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}3 \ \textgreater \ \frac{3\cdot \:2x}{3}\ \textless \ 3\left(-8\right) \ \textgreater \ Simplify \ \textgreater \ 2x\ \textless \ -24$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2 \ \textgreater \ \frac{2x}{2}\ \textless \ \frac{-24}{2} \ \textgreater \ Simplify \ \textgreater \ x\ \textless \ -12$

$Therefore\; x\ \textless \ -12 \;is\;our\;answer!$

Hope this helps!

Answer:

6 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Square E'F'G'H' is just square EFGH translated to the left.

It is still the same size, just in a different location.
