Answer:
a=60
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Cross-multiply
x² + 2x = 4x²
Step 2: Isolate <em>x</em>'s
2x = 3x²
0 = 3x² - 2x
Step 3: Factor
x(3x - 2) = 0
Step 4: Find roots
x = 0, x = 2/3
Step 5: Double check answers.
When you do so, you should see that only x = 0 works. And we have our answer!
So, you start by separating the equation into two inequalities and you get
4x+1 > -7 and 4x +1 < 5
Solve these inequalities and you get your final answer:
x > -2 and x < 1
(The equalities symbols are supposed to have the "or equal" line beneath them, I was just too lazy to put them.)
