Answer:

x > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

= -2(3x + 2) > -8x + 6

(negative sign before bracket will alter the internal signs when multiplied by each term)

= -6x - 4 > -8x +6

Taking x terms on left side and other constants on right side

= -6x + 8x > 6 +4

Signs will be changer for transferred terms

= 2x > 10

By Dividing both sides 2 we get

=x > 10/2

= x >5

grigory [225]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{36}{25}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use}\ a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}\\\\\dfrac{5^{-2}\cdot9}{2^4\cdot4^{-3}}=(5^{-2}\cdot9):(2^4\cdot4^{-3})=\left(\dfrac{1}{5^2}\cdot9\right):\left(2^4\cdot(2^2)^{-3}\right)\\\\\text{use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\left(\dfrac{1}{25}\cdot9\right):(2^4\cdot2^{-6})\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=\dfrac{9}{25}:2^{4+(-6)}=\dfrac{9}{25}:2^{-2}=\dfrac{9}{25}:\dfrac{1}{2^2}=\dfrac{9}{25}:\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{9}{25}\cdot\dfrac{4}{1}=\dfrac{36}{25}$
