Let the number of reptiles on endangered list be 'x'
2x + 16=158
2x=158-16
2x=142
x=71
So there are 71 reptiles on the endangered list
To answer this question you have to create a system of equations. The first equation will be that Devi's money (x) equals her brother's money (y), or x = y. The next equation would be that (3/5)x + (7/10)y = 78. You than can substitute x in for y because x = y. The equation would know be (3/5)x + (7/10)x = 78. You then combine the like terms to create an equation of (13/10)x = 78. Then, multiply both sides by 10 / 13 in order to isolate x. This will create the equation x = 60. This means that Devi and her brother each had 60 dollars. You then find out how much they spent and add it together. You can do so with the equation (2/5)x + (3/10)y = z, with z being total money spent. You substitute 60 in for x and for y then solve. When you solve you see that 24 + 18 = z, or that z equals 42. In other words, they spent 42 dollars altogether.
Answer:
A graph showing a range of negative three to two on the x and y axes. A dotted line with arrows at both ends that passes through the x axis at two and runs parallel to the y axis. The graph is shaded to the left of the line.
Step-by-step explanation:
The inequality given is x < 2. This means x is less than two are the values that satisfy the equation.
The equation can be written as x=2 to identify the position where the line will pass. The line is dotted and will pass through x=2 to be parallel with the y-axis.
The second and third answers are not correct because the line should not be solid.
The first answer is not correct because the shaded part should be to the left of the line.

The answer choice which represents the solution to the inequality as given in the task content is; x>-2 or x≤ 1.
<h3>What is the solution of the give complex inequality?</h3>
On this note, it follows that the inequalities can be solved individually as follows;
-4 < 3x +2
-6 < 3x
x > -2
Also, 3x +2 ≤ 5
3x ≤ 3
x ≤ 1.
Ultimately, the correct answer choice is; Choice C; x>-2 or x≤ 1.
