12x > 9(2x-3)-15
distribute the 9
12x > 18x-27 -15
combine like terms on the right side
12x > 18x-42
subtract 18x from both sides
-6x > -42
divide both sides by -6
x = -42 / -6 = 7
x >7
Answer:
(p,r) = (1/3, 2/9)
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve a system of equations
We can rewrite the second equation by dividing through by 2
So we have;
4p + 3r = 2
and
5p - 3r = 1
Add both equations:
9p = 3
p = 3/9
p = 1/3
Recall ;
5p - 3r = 1
3r = 5p - 1
Substitute the value or p here
3r = 5(1/3)-1
3r = 5/3 - 1
3r = 2/3
r = 2/9
So we have the solution set as;
(p,r) = (1/3 , 2/9)
