Answer:

C. x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as you don't multiply or divide by any negative numbers*, you can solve this the same way you would an equation.

3x +2 > x +8

3x > x +6 . . . . . . subtract 2

2x > 6 . . . . . . . . subtract x

x > 3 . . . . . . . . . .divide by 2; matches choice C

_____

* The complete rule is "as long as you don't use any order-changing operations, ...". There are some functions you can apply to both sides of the inequality that will change the ordering. Multiplication or division by a negative number is only one of many.

1 < 2

-1 > -2 . . . . . multiplication by -1 reverses the order

Answer:

$x > 3$

Answer C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x + 2 > x + 8 \\ 3x - x > - 2 + 8 \\ 2x > 6 \\ \frac{2x}{2} > \frac{6}{2} \\ x > 3$

hope this helps

Evaluate the expression when c=2. 6c/2

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression g(c) = 6c/2, we are to find the value when c = 2

Substitute c = 2 into the expression

g(2) = 6(2)/2

g(2) = 12/2

g(2) = 6

Hence the result when c = 2 is 6

What is 11 1/2 + 10 11/16=

ahrayia [7]

Hey!

To solve this equation, we must first convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions. To do that we'll multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the total to the numerator.

Original Equation :

$11\frac{1}{2} + 10\frac{11}{16} = ?$

New Equation {Converted Mixed Numbers Into Improper Fractions} :

$\frac{23}{2} + \frac{171}{16} = ?$

Now that we've successfully changed our equation, we'll move onto the next step. Next we'll have change the fractions one more time so that the denominators are the same. To do that we'll multiply two by eight to get sixteen. We'll also be multiplying the top portion of the fraction by eight, because whatever you do to the bottom must also be done to the top; And vise versa.

Fraction Conversion :

$\frac{23*8}{2*8} = \frac{184}{16}$

So, now that we have our new fraction we can go ahead and plug that into our equation so we can start adding. Remember, we don't add the denominators, just the numerators.

Old Equation :

$\frac{23}{2} + \frac{171}{16} = ?$

New Equation {Input New Fraction With Common Denominator} :

$\frac{184}{16} +\frac{171}{16} = ?$

Solution {New Equation Solved} :

$\frac{355}{16}$

Now I'm not exactly sure how your instructor will accept your answer, but most prefer the final answer to be in the simplest form. In other words, they don't want it in the form of an improper fraction. They'd most likely rather have it as a mixed number.

New Solution {Converted to a Mixed Number} :

$22\frac{3}{16}$

Since the fraction cannot be simplified anymore, this should be our final answer.

So, this means that the answer to the equation is $22\frac{3}{16}$ .

Hope this helps!

A rocket generates a net force (F) of 2,050,000 newtons, and the rocket mass (m) is 40,000 kilograms

SVEN [57.7K]

From the given equation above, F = ma, acceleration may be calculated by slightly modifying the equation into a = F / m. Substituting the known values for force and mass,

a = 2,050,000 N / 40,000 kg = 51.25 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration achieved is 51.25 m/s².
