Consider the inequality-5(x+7)<-10 write an inequality representing the solution for x

Mathematics
1 answer:
GrogVix [38]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<h2>x > -5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x + 7) < -10            <em>use the distributive property </em><em>a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>

(-5)(x) + (-5)(7) < -10

-5x - 35 < -10         <em>add 35 to both sides</em>

-5x < 25         <em>change the signs</em>

5x > - 25       <em>divide both sides by 5</em>

x > -5

When solving the equation such as 2/3x = 4/5 , why would you multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 2/3 ?
barxatty [35]
Answer: Well you’re solving for “x,” so you’ll need to isolate this variable. This means we need to “get rid of” the fraction 2/3 that is attached to it. The faction is attached by the operation multiplication, so to remove it we must divide it on both sides. And division with fractions requires the reciprocal. (Try watching an explanation if you’re confused on why division requires reciprocals).

natita [175]

Answer:

They are skew lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which statement is true about lines a and b?

They are parallel lines.

They are perpendicular lines.

They are skew lines.

They will intersect.

As they both are in different directions they are skew lines .

Skew lines are not parallel neither they .They are also not co planar i.e they lie in different planes.

We have two plane Q and R . We have two line a and b on the different planes Q and R. Both planes are parallel but the lines a and b are in different directions. Therefore they are skew lines . They do not intersect and are also not parallel neither co planar.
