Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Distribute parenthesis

5x - 20 = 2x + 10

Step 2: Add 20 to both sides

5x = 2x + 30

Step 3: Subtract 2x from both sides

3x = 30

Step 4: Divide by 3

x = 10

5x-20 = 2x+10

3x-20= 10

3x= 30

Answer:

A. 1

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

  1. Brackets
  2. Parenthesis
  3. Exponents
  4. Multiplication
  5. Division
  6. Addition
  7. Subtraction
  • Left to Right

Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

-5x - 1 ≤ -9

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Add 1 to both sides:                    -5x ≤ -8
  2. Divide -5 on both sides:             x ≥ 8/5

Here we see that any value <em>x</em> greater than or equal to 1.6 would work as a solution.

Therefore, our answer is A. 1, as it doesn't work as a solution.

Six ft or two meters
matrenka [14]
Two meters is greater because there are about 79 inches in two meters and when you do 6 x 12 you get 72 inches, so six feet are less than two meters. Vice versa if you wanted the smaller length.
