Answer: C) Cannot be done
Taking the square root of a negative number is not possible unless you involve complex numbers. If your teacher has not introduced that topic yet, then you just simply say "cannot be done" or something along those lines.
If a< c< b then a<c and c<b
Separate the equation into 2 separate ones and solve them:
X-9 < 4x +3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
X-12 < 4x
Subtract x from both sides:
-12< 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
X > -4
4x+3 < 27
Subtract 3 from both sides
4x < 24
Divide both sides by 4
X <6
Combine to get one inequality:
-4<x<6
Answer:
9 7/8 - ( -2 4/5 - 1/2) = 13.175
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this is correct and helps.
Plug in 3 for f(x)
f(3)=(3)²+7
f(3)=9+7
f(3)=16
Hoped this helped!
