Answer:
243 or 3^5
Step-by-step explanation:
You can do the product by multiplying starting from the left.
3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 =
= 9 * 3 * 3 * 3
= 27 * 3 * 3
= 81 * 3
= 243
You can also change it to an exponential form.
3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 = 3^5
For this case what we have to take into account is the following variable:
x = represent the unknown number
We now write the following inequality:
"four times the sum of number and 15 is at least 20"
4 (x + 15)> = 20
We clear the value of x:
(x + 15)> = 20/4
(x + 15)> = 5
x> = 5 - 15
x> = - 10
The solution set is:
[-10, inf)
Answer:
all possible values for X are:
[-10, inf)
