To solve for x in an inequality is very similar to solving for x in an equation since for both you would need to isolate x.
step 1) -2x-4>8 add the 4 over to move any constants over to the +4 +4 other side.
-2x> 12
step 2) x< -6 Divide out the -2 to isolate x, however, keep in mind, when you divide or multiply over any negative number, you must also remember to flip the inquality sign.
Answer: x<-6
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For species A,

For species B,

When their populations are equal,

The diagram below shows the population of Species A overtaking that of Species B in about 30.5 yr.
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
17+13=30
22+23+5=50
30+50=80
Begin by factoring 2 out of 2x^2 - 2x - 12 equals 0:
2(x^2 - x - 6) = 0
2(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0. 2 is never zero, but x-3 and x+2 can each be set = to 0:
This results in x = 3 and x = -2. The equation is true for these two x-values.
