<span>seven less than (-7) than the product of twice a number (2x) is greater than (>) five more than (+5) the same number (x)
2x-7>x+5
treat the > sign as an equals for now
2x-7=x+5
subtract x from both sides
x-7=5
add 7 to both sides
x=12
put the > sign back in
x>12</span>
Answer:
14/27 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/3 feet : 4 1/2 feet
= 7/3 : 9/2
= 7/3 ÷ 9/2
= 7/3 × 2/9
= (7*2)/(3*9)
= 14/27 feet
2 1/3 feet : 4 1/2 feet = 14/27 feet
-3.8 + 1.7 is just like 3.8 - 1.7 just adding a negative sign (-) to it. So, -3.8 + 1.7 = -2.1
