To figure out if -3 is a solution, plug -3 into the x variable and solve the inequality as such:

$2*-3+5>-5\\-6+5>-5\\-1>-5$

<u>Now, since -1 > -5 is a true statement, this means that -3 is a solution to this inequality.</u>

If the ratio of the sides of two similar prisms is 3:5 and the volume of the first prism is 54, what is the volume of the second

Yuri [45]

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{ratio relations}
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccllll}
&Sides&Area&Volume\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}&\cfrac{s}{s}&\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}&\cfrac{s^3}{s^3}
\end{array} \\\\
-----------------------------\\\\$

$\bf \cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}\qquad \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{\sqrt{s^2}}{\sqrt{s^2}}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{smaller}{larger}\qquad \cfrac{s^3}{s^3}=\cfrac{\textit{volume of smaller}}{\textit{volume of larger}}\implies \cfrac{3^3}{5^3}=\cfrac{54}{v}
\\\\\\
v=\cfrac{5^3\cdot 54}{3^3}$
