What is 8x + 10 ≤ 51 please show work

Vanyuwa [196]

$\huge\fbox{Hi~there!~:)}$

Let's solve this inequality! :)

Let's start by subtracting 10 from both sides:

$\rm{8x\leq 51-10}$

$\rm{8x\leq 41$

Now, divide both sides by 8:

$x\leq \displaystyle\frac{41}{8}$ (Answer)

Decimal form:

$\rm{5.125}$

I hope you find it helpful.

Jenny and Kath hire the canal boat for 14 days. They share the hire cost of £1785.00 in the ratio 2:3. Work out the smaller shar

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

£714.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to set up expresssions for the two shares:

Let x = the amount of one share. The other share is 1785 - x. <u>You don't have to worry about which is smaller--that part will work out automatically</u>!

The two shares are in the ratio of 2:3, so set up the proportion

$\frac{x}{1785-x}=\frac{2}{3}$

Again, you don't have to worry--you could set up the proportion "upside down" and everything will work out in the end.

Solve the proportion for x by "cross multiplying" -- use the Means-Extremes Property of proportions.

$(3)(x)=(2)(1785-x)\\3x=3570-2x\\5x=3570\\x=714$

So one share is £714£ and the other is £1785 - £714 = £1071.

The smaller share is £714.

First multiply the equation by 5 to get y by itself.
$y+35=120$
Then subtract 35 from each side to get the integer by itself.
So, final answer:
$y=85$

Find three consecutive integers such that the sum of twice the smallest and 3 times the largest is 126

True [87]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numbers be x,x+1,x+2 (x<x+1<x+2)

2x+3(x+2)=126

2x+3x+6=126

5x=126-6

5x=120

x=120/5=24

numbers are 24,24+1,24+2

or 24,25,26
