75+ 15x ≥ 140
⇒ 15x ≥ 140-75
⇒ 15x ≥ 65
⇒ x ≥ 65/15
⇒ x ≥ 13/3
⇒ x ≥ 4 1/3
Final answer: x ≥ 4 1/3~
If you use a proportion, you'll get:

Then, you use cross products:

Then, you algebraically solve x:

The answer is 5/3 inches , or 1 5/13 inches, or 1.6 repeating.
The first reaction represented is a decomposition reaction due to the fact the bonded pair are being split apart.
The second equation is a single displacement because the B and C have switched places, which is the only change making it a single displacement. If there had been another bond and A had also moved, it would be double.
88=4*22=> sqrt88=2sqrt22
sqrt22 is approximately sqrt25=5
so 4 < sqrt22 < 5
8 < 2sqrt22 < 10
8 < sqrt88 < 10
