Hello there I hope you are having a great day :)
Your Question, -4(2x + 4) > 8x + 64 Solve for X
1) Expand -8x-16>8x+64
2) Add 16 to both sides -8x-16+16>8x+64+16
3) Simplify -8x>8x+80
4) Subtract 8x from both sides -8x-8x>8x+80-8x
5) Simplify -16x>80
6) Multiply both sides -1 (Reverse the inequality) (-16x) (-1) >80 (-1)
7) Simplify 16x<-80
8) divide both sides by 16 16x/16 < -80/16
9) Simplify x < -5
This should be your answer x < -5
Hopefully that helps you :)
y = x³ + 3x² - x - 3
0 = x³ + 3x² - x - 3
0 = x²(x) + x²(3) - 1(x) - 1(3)
0 = x²(x + 3) - 1(x + 3)
0 = (x² - 1)(x + 3)
0 = (x² + x - x - 1)(x + 3)
0 = (x(x) + x(1) - 1(x) - 1(1))(x + 3)
0 = (x(x + 1) - 1(x + 1))(x + 3)
0 = (x - 1)(x + 1)(x + 3)
0 = x - 1 or 0 = x + 1 or 0 = x + 3
+ 1 + 1 - 1 - 1 - 3 - 3
1 = x or -1 = x or -3 = x
Solution Set: {-3, -1, 1}
3x-14=4x-9
-4x -4x
-x-14=-9
-14 -14
-x=-15
-x/-1=-15/-1
x=15
Sorry if this is a bit confusing, but I hope I helped
The basket ball players because the mean is higher!! Good Luck!
