Answer:

All the numbers are less than and equal to 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : All numbers such that a third of a number increased by half that number is at least 3 less than that same number ?

Solution :

Let the number be 'x',

A third of a number is \frac{x}{3}

Half that number is \frac{x}{2}

3 less than that same number is x-3

A third of a number increased by half that number is at least 3 less than that same number is written as,

\frac{x}{3}+\frac{x}{2}\geq x-3

\frac{2x+3x}{6}\geq x-3

\frac{5x}{6}\geq x-3

5x\geq 6x-18

5x-6x\geq -18

-x\geq -18

x\leq 18

Therefore, all the numbers are less than and equal to 18.

What is the solution set to the inequality 5(x - 2)(x + 4) &gt; 0?
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

You selected the correct answer: {x | x <<em> </em>-4 or x > 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

5(x - 2)(x + 4) > 0

Use FOIL method to expand (x - 2)(x + 4):

5(x^{2} + 2x - 8) > 0

Distribute 5 into (x^{2} + 2x - 8)

5x^{2} + 10x - 40 > 0

Divide all terms by 5 from both sides of the inequality:

\frac{5x^{2}}{5}  + \frac{10x}{5}  - \frac{40}{5} > \frac{0}{5}

x^{2} + 2x - 8 > 0

Factor the trinomial:

(x + 4) ( x - 2)  > 0

x < -4 or x > -2

Therefore, the solution set to the inequality is {x | x < -4 or x > 2}

<em>Interval notation:  </em>(-∞, -4) ∪ (2, ∞)

PLEASE HELP!!! A bridge has a weight limit of 5000 kg. What is the heaviest load that a pickup truck weighing 4500 pounds could
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

  6500 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

The load limit of the bridge is ...

  (5000 kg)(2.2 lb/kg) = 11,000 lb

The total of truck and trailer cannot exceed this value, so the trailer's weight cannot exceed ...

  11,000 lb -4,500 lb = 6,500 lb . . . max trailer weight

A drone has an effective range represented by a circle on a coordinate plane. The points (–12, 3) and (–6, –5) are endpoints of
Mrac [35]

Answer:

(x+9)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question says diameter, we know the boundary in a circle. Therefore, we just need to find the center and radius.

The center is the midpoint of the two endpoints on a diameter.

Here, it is (-9, -1).

Therefore, the left part of the equation is (x- -9)^2 + (y - -1)^2 = (x+9)^2 + (y+1)^2.

The radius: sqrt(8^2 + 6^2) = 10

So the equation is (x+9)^2 + (y+1)^2 = 100

Oduvanchick [21]
It would be 0 because as you go along it doesn't go up but keeps moving. An undefined slope is up and down/vertical.
