Answer:
b. -3
Step-by-step explanation:
9(2x+1) < 9x-18
(distribute the 9)
18x+9 <9x-18
(subtract 9 from both sides)
18x<9x-27
(subtract 9x from both sides)
9x<-27
(divide both sides by 9)
x<-3
First you need to divide 125 / 25 which is 5 then you do subtraction 21 x 5 which is 105, then you subtract again 125 - 105 which is 20, 20 light bulbs will be broken. Or you could have just multiplied 5 by 4 which is the amount of light bulbs that were broken which is a lot easier...
