-8x + 2x -16 “is less than” -5x +7x

Mathematics
1 answer:
wlad13 [49]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x < 4

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x + 2x - 16 < -5x + 7x

Put the <em>x </em>values together on both sides.

6x - 16 < 2x

Subtract the <em>6x</em> from both sides.

-16 < -4x

Divide the <em>-4x</em> from both sides.

4 > x

<u><em>(NOTICE:</em></u><em> The inequality sign flipped when we divided by a NEGATIVE number. This will always happen when multiplying or dividing by a NEGATIVE)</em>

<em />

<em>Most teachers will want the variable in front so the answer will be </em><em>x < 4</em>

<em>(</em><u><em>NOTICE:</em></u><em> The inequality sign flipped again! This happens whenever you flip the order of the numbers. Meaning, the variable on the left or right side. Usually, you will want the variable on the left side.)</em>

Question 7 (Essay Worth 5 points)
kogti [31]

Answer:

x = -2

y=-3

(-2,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations are equal to y

We can set them equal to each other

y = 3x + 3

y = x − 1

3x+3 = x-1

Subtract x from each side

3x+3 -x = x-1-x

2x+3 = -1

Subtract 3 from each side

2x+3-3 = -1-3

2x = -4

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 = -4/2

x = -2

Now we need to find y

y = x-1

y = -2-1

y = -3

y = x-1

F(x)=(x+4)(x-2)(x+4)(x+4)<br><br> What is the multiple zero? Multiplicity is?
kari74 [83]
f(x)=(x+4)(x-2)(x+4)(x+4)\\f(x)=(x+4)^3(x-2)=0\\(x+4)^3=0~|~(x-2)=0\\(x+4)(x+4)(x+4)=0~|~x=2\\x=-4,2

The multiple zero is x = -4.

The multiplicity is 2 because there are two values of x.
