Combine like terms. So that means combine the X's and combine the regular numbers.
- add 2x to 8x
- combine +15 -5
- then add 11 to that
- once you're done, find X by dividing 10x by whatever you have after the = sign
Answer:
Step 1
Write and solve the inequality:
2,500 + 40a ≥ 4,000, or 40a ≥ 1,500
a ≥ 37.5
Step 2
If the shelter places 30 cats and 10 dogs,
or 40 animals, that will be enough to meet
its goal, because a = 40 is a solution to the
inequality a ≥ 37.5.
Answer:
x=28
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-5)=92
4x-20=92
add 20 to both sides
4x=112
divide 4 on both sides
x=28
