The solution to these equations is either x < 0 or x > 3.
In order to find them, we need to solve each equation separately. Let's start with the first one.
2x - 1 < -1 -----> Add 1 to both sides
2x < 0 -----> Now divide each side by 2.
x < 0
Now let's look at the second one.
-4x < -12 ----> Divide both sides by -4
x > 3 (Notice that the sign changes direction because we divided by a negative)
When you have an "or" statement, you'll wind up with two answers, so we use both of these.
Total charge at park, T = 2×charge on adults + 4×charge on children .
T =$(2×16 + 4×10)
T = $72
Now, Melissa's father paid $100 .
Amount her father get back is :
A = $( 100 - 72 )
A = $28
Therefore, her father get $28 back.
Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4x + 6) = 8x + 12
3(x - 1) = 3x -3
8x + 12 = 3x - 3
5x = -15
x = -3
