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

Martin combined different amounts of orange juice, pineapple juice, and strawberry juice to make 1850 milliliters (ml) of fruit
stealth61 [152]
The answer is 450 ml.

First, we need to solve x (the amount of orange juice):
<span>x + (x + 100) + one half x = 1850
</span>x + x + 100 + 1/2 x = 1850

We can represent 1/2 as 0.5:

2x + 100 + 0.5x = 1850
2.5x = 1850 - 100
2.5x = 1750
x = 1750 ÷ 2.5
x = 700.

Thus, in the fruit punch, there is 700 ml of orange juice.

<span>The amount of pineapple juice combined was 100 ml more than the amount of orange juice. Therefore, there is 800 ml of pineapple juice (700 ml of orange juice + 100 ml more).
</span>
The amount of strawberry juice was half the amount of orange juice. Therefore, there is 350 ml of strawberry juice (700 ml of orange juice ÷ 2).

<span>The difference in the amounts of pineapple juice and strawberry juice Martin combined is 450 ml:
</span>the amounts of pineapple juice - the amounts of strawberry juice =
800 ml of pineapple juice - <span>350 ml of strawberry juice = 450 ml.

</span>
