What is the justification for each step in solving the inequality?

alekssr [168]

$HELLO ANNA!!$

Given inequality
=> −2(x+1)≥3x+8
=>
$- 2x - 2 \geqslant 3x + 8 \\ \\ add \: 2 \: in \: both \: sides \\ \\ - 2x \geqslant 3x + 10 \\ \\ subtract \: with \: - 3x \: in \: both \: sides \: \\ \\ - 5x \geqslant 10 \\$

now multiply with - on both sides.

As we know now sign will change
=> 5x >_ -10

Now divide by 5 on both sides
=> x >_ -2
HOPE IT HELPED YOU.

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:using elimination to solve for x

9x +6y = 3*134 | Multiplying 1st equation by 3

-4x -6y = -2*146 | Multiplying 2nd equation by -2

5x = 3*134 - 2*146

5x = $110

x = $22, the cost of the youth ticket

Step-by-step explanation:This question Sets Up two equations with 2 unknowns

Let x and y represent the cost of the youth and adult ticket respectively

Question states***

3x + 2y = $134

2x + 3y = $146

Kermit's favorite iced tea is made with 151515 tea bags in every 222 liters of water. Peggy made a 121212-liter batch of iced te

muminat

Answer:

The answer is (Choice C) It is just right.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, so the complete question is below:

Kermit's favorite iced tea is made with 15 tea bags in every 2 liters of water. Peggy made a 12-liter batch of iced tea with 90 tea bags. What will Kermit think of Peggy's iced tea? Choose 1 answer: (Choice A) It is too strong. (Choice B) It is too weak. (Choice C) It is just right.

Now, to find which of the choice is correct.

So, we find first the unit rate of Peggy's iced tea bags per liter:

If, Peggy made a 12-liter batch of iced tea with 90 tea bags.

Then, Peggy would made a 1-liter batch of iced tea with = $\frac{90}{12} =7.5\ tea\ bags.$

Now, to get the unit rate of Kermit's iced tea bags per liter:

If, Kermit made a 2 liter of iced tea with 15 tea bags.

Then, Kermit would made a 2 liter of iced tea with = $\frac{15}{2} =7.5\ tea\ bags.$

Thus, the quantity of tea bags per liter is same of both Kermit and Peggy.

Hence, Kermit will think of Peggy's iced tea that it is just right.

Therefore, the answer is (Choice C) It is just right.

A hat contains pieces of paper marked with the numbers 1 through 16. Tell whether picking an even number is impossible, unlikely

Anna [14]

Answer:

Picking an even number is an as likely event and it's probability is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the numbers present are 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16

The odd numbers are 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15

The even numbers are 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16

There are 8 even numbers and 8 odd numbers.

And also if we pick a number it should be either an even number or an odd number.

Probability(Getting an even number) = $\frac{even number}{even number+oddnumber}$

Probability = $\frac{8}{8+8}$ = 1/2

Therefore picking an even number is an as likely event and it's probability is 1/2
