Hello,
the first step should be to distribue:
-4(3-5x)= -12+20x
Teh resolution may be:
-4(3-5x)>=-6x+9
==>-12+20x>=-6x+9
==>20x+6x>=9+12
==>26x>21
==>x>=21/26
But an other way may be used:
-4(3-5x)>=-6x+9
==>3-5x<= -6x/(-4)+9/(-4)
==>-5x-3/2 x<=-9/4 -3
==>-13/2 x <=-21/4
==>x>= -21/4 *(-2/13)
==>x>=21/(2*13)
==>x>=21/26

Because to cancel out division you use multiplication
The answer is 523.6 and all you have to do is round it to the nearest hundredth
Hello!
First you have to find the surface area of what he is painting
Finding the areas of all the rectangles he is painting
14 * 8 = 112
14 * 8 = 112
12 * 8 = 96
12 * 8 = 96
12 * 14 = 168
Add all these up
112 + 112 + 96 + 96 + 168 = 584
Divide this by the amount of area a pint of paint covers
584 / 90 = 6.4888...
He needs 7 pints of paint because he needs more than 6
Multiply this by the cost of 1 pint of pint
7 * 7.98 = 55.86
The answer is $55.86
Hope this helps!
