First translate the English phrase "Four times the sum of a number and 15 is at least 120" into a mathematical inequality.

"Four times..." means we're multiplying something by 4.

"... the sum of a number and 15..." means we're adding an unknown and 15 and then multiplying the result by 4.

"... is at least 120" means when we substitute the unknown for a value, in order for that value to be in the solution set, it can only be less than or equal to 120.

So, the resulting inequality is 4(x + 15) ≤ 120.

Simplify the inequality.

4(x + 15) ≤ 120
4x + 60 ≤ 120 <-- Using the distributive property
4x ≤ 60 <-- Subtract both sides by 60
x ≤ 15 <-- Divide both sides by 4

Now that we have the inequality in a simplified form, we can easily see that in order to be in the solution set, the variable x can be no bigger than 15.

In interval notation it would look something like this:

[15, ∞)

In set builder notation it would look something like this:

{x | x ∈ R, x ≤ 15}

It is read as "the set of all x, such that x is a member of the real numbers and x is less than or equal to 15".

Tim is designing a logo. The logo is a polygon. Whose shape is a square attached to an equilateral triangle. The square and the
Sauron [17]
Given:
2 shapes : square and equilateral triangle
side length = 2 cm
height of equilateral triangle = 1.7 cm

Equilateral triangle means that all sides are of equal measurement.

Area of a Square = a² ⇒ (2cm)² = 4cm²
Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4 * a² 
Area of an equilateral triangle = √3/4 * (2cm)² = 0.43 * 4cm² = 1.72 cm²

Area of the logo = 4 cm² + 1.72 cm² = 5.72 cm²

Han's house is 450 meters from school. Lin’s house is 135 meters closer to school. How far is Lin’s house from school?
Marina86 [1]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Han's house = 450 m from school
  • Lin's house = (450 - 135) from school

<u>Looking at the options, we can tell that the letter "z" represents Lin. </u>

  • => z = (450 - 135)
  • => z = 450 - 135

This option matches with Option D.

Option D is correct.
