x < -23/2

Step-by-step explanation:

you open the bracket first

LHS

3-(2x - 5)

-6x+15

RHS

-4(x+2)

=-4x-8

therefore:

-6x+15 < -4x-8

By collecting the like terms

-6x+4x < -8-15

=-2x<-23

Divide both side by -2x

-2x/-2 < -23/-2

x < -23/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3-(2x-5) <-4(x+2)

=> 3- 2x +5 +4x +8<0

=> 16 + 2x <0

=> 2x < -16

=> x < -8

Which of the following is equivalent to 2 ln e^ln 5x = 2 ln 15?

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question an equation,

$2lne^{ln5x}=2ln15$

Step 1

$e^{lnx}=x$

so,

$2ln(5x)=2ln15$

Step 2

cancel 2 on both sides of the equation

$ln{5x}=ln15$

Step 3

$ln{5x}-ln15=0$

$ln\frac{5x}{15}=0$

Step 4

$ln\frac{x}{3}=0$

Step 5

$e^{ln\frac{x}{3}}=e^{0}$

Step 6

x/3 = 1

x = 3(1)

x = 3
