Marcie solved the following inequality and her work is shown below:. . −2(x − 5) − 12 ≤ 4 + 6(x + 3). −2x + 10 − 12 ≤ 4 + 6x + 1

8. −2x − 2 ≤ 6x + 22. −8x ≤ 24. x ≤ −3. . What mistake did Marcie make in solving the inequality?

The mistake which Marcie made in solving the equation was when she added 2 to 6x and 2 to 22 to make ≤ 24. x ≤ −3.

Adding 2 to 6x would make 6x + 2, therefore this is the mistake that Marcie made solving the inequality.

All steps that Marcie did are right, but she forgot to change sign in last step.

Consider the inequality

-2(x - 5) -12 \le 4 + 6(x + 3).

Then

-2x+10-12 \le 4 + 6x+18.

Group the numbers:

-2x-2 \le 6x+22.

Separate terms with x and without x in different sides:

-2x-6x \le 22+2.\\-8x\le 24.

The coefficient at x is -8 and it is negative, then dividing the inequality by -8 you have to change sign in opposite:

x\ge -3.

Answer: Marcie forgot to change sign in last step.

Volume of cylinder with a base radius of 5 and height of 3
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

235.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>VOLUME: THE AMOUNT OF SPACE OCCUPIED BY A 3D OBJECT.</u>

The formula for volume of a cylinder is:

pi*r^2*h (3.14 * radius *radius * height)

The radius of this cylinder is 5 and the height is 3.

Now, we can plug the numbers in the formula.

<u>SOLVE:</u>

<u />pi *5^2*3(3.14*5*5*3)=235.5.<u />

The product of the equation is 235.5.

I, therefore, believe the volume of this cylinder is 235.5.

10 yards 1 foot 9 inches divided by 3
AysviL [449]

Answer:

127 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A single yard is equal to 3 feet. So one yard 1 foot and 9 inches is:

3(10)+1 and 9 inches.

each feet has 12 inches, so it goes something like this:

12(31)+9 inches

multiply it out:

372+9\\381

Thats the total number of inches, now we divide by 3 (use long division:

\frac{381}{3}=127

Hope this helps!
