Answer:

There is no solution for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided inequality.

$4(x+1)\leq 4x+3$

Distributive property:

$a(b+c)=ab+ac$

Use the distributive property to simplify the above inequality.

$4(x+1)\leq 4x+3$

$4x+4\leq 4x+3$

Subtract 4x from both the sides.

$-4x+4x+4\leq 4x-4x+3$

$4\leq 3$

Which is false, as 3 is neither greater or equal to 4.

Hence, there is no solution for x.

4x + 4 < 4x + 3 (expand it)
4 < 3 (cancel 4x on both sides)
Since 4 < 3 is not true there is no solution.

Answer: NO SOLUTION.

Which statement below best describes the quantum view of light and matter?

poizon [28]

The correct option is D.
The Quantum theory states that both light and matter are made up of small particles that possess wavelike and particle like properties. This is described as the dual nature of light and matter. Light is made up of photons while matter is made up of electron, proton and neutron. The two can behave as both waves and particles.

A 1200-kg car traveling initially with a speed of 25.0 m/s in an easterly direction crashes into the rear end of a 9,000-kg truc

UNO [17]

Answer

given,

mass of car (m) = 1200 Kg

speed of cur, u = 25 m/s

mass of truck(M) = 9000 Kg

speed of truck, u' = 20 m/s

v = 18 m/s

a) using conservation of momentum
