-2x + 5 < 7
-2x + 5 < 7
<u> -5 -5 </u> deduct 5 from both sides
-2x < 2
<u>÷ -2 ÷ -2 </u> divide both sides by negative 2. Because of the division
x > -1 using a negative number, the sign is then reversed.
from < it becomes >.
The value of x should be greater than -1. It can be 0, 1, 2, so on...
To check: Revert back to the original sign which is <.
x = 1
-2x + 5 < 7
-2(1) + 5 < 7
-2 + 5 < 7
3 < 7
X=-14

Answer:
C. 72 sorry if its wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
trapezoid formula : A= 1/2h(B+b)

A= 1/2×6(10+14)
A= 3(24)
A= 72
Answer:
Hence the pricing for each product will be taronges with 2 euros and mandarins with 2.5 euros.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
2 kg of taronges and 3 kg mandarins cost 11.5 euros
3kg taronges and 2 kg mandarins cost 11 euros
To Find:
Price for each product
Solution:
<em>Consider </em>
<em>Taronges =x euros</em>
<em>Mandarins=y euros</em>
So by given condition,
....................equation(1)
and 
...........equation (2)
So , using substitution method,
.......equation (3)
Using above value in equation(1) we get ,
)
y=2.5 euros
Using above value in equation(3) we get ,
x=2 euros
.04*7115.68=284.6272
$284.62 or $284.63 (depending on how lenient your teacher is with rounding)
