Answer:

x < -3/4 OR x>16/5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x – 4 > 12 OR 12x+5 < -4

Solve the parts separately and then put back together

5x – 4 > 12

Add 4 to each side

5x-4+4>12+4

5x >16

Divide each side by 5

5x/5>16/5

x > 16/5

12x+5 < -4

Subtract 5 from each side

12x+5-5<-4-5

12x<-9

Divide each side by 12

12x<-9/12

x <-3/4

Put back together

x < -3/4 OR x>16/5

Answer:

40 Minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The current time = 4:12 p.M.

Emma's mom will be home from work in 70 minutes.

70 minutes = 1 hour 10 Minutes= 1: 10 Hours

$\left\begin{array}{ccccc}&4&:&12 &p.m.\\+&1&:&10&\\--&--&--&--&--\\&5&:&22&p.m\end{array}\right$

Therefore, Emma's Mom will get home by 5: 22 p.m.

Emma has gymnastics lessons at 6 : 00 p.M.

To determine how much time Emma will have between the time that her mom gets home from work and the beginning of gymnastics lessons, we simply subtract 5:22 from 6.

$\left\begin{array}{ccccc}&6&:&00 &p.m.\\-&5&:&22&\\--&--&--&--&--\\&00&:&40&\end{array}\right$

Emma will have 40 Minutes.

It's said to say my question, but it's in the pic, so I don't know what to say. <br> But thanks

BARSIC [14]

Answer: A, or 0.2x

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure how expressions and percent's match up, replace the x with an easy number. For example, I use 4.

20% of 4 is 0.8, and 4 x 0.2 is also 0.8

Therefore, the expression to represent that percentage is A.

Also, the other answers were WAYYY off.

B, or x - 20 is flawed since x could be anything.

C, is also flawed in the same way.

And D makes -76.

A is the only sensible one and is proven to work.

Hope this helped!
