Answer:
The time now is 7 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that now is the time T.
We know that:
"if time is four hours from now, the time left till midnight would be a quarter that if it is one hour from now".
Then:
if we define midnight as 12, and we assume that T is in the pm range.
Then the "time left till midnigth, assuming that the time is four hours from now" will be written as (12 - (T + 4))
With this in mind, we can write the problem as:
12 - (T + 4) = (1/4)*( 12 - (T + 1))
Now we can solve this for T.
12 - T - 4 = (1/4)*(12 - T - 1)
8 - T = (1/4)*(11 - T)
4*(8 - T) = 11 - T
32 - 4*T = 11 - T
32 - 11 = -T + 4*T
21 = 3*T
21/3 = T
7 = T
Then T = 7 pm
The time now is 7 pm
Answer:
4^8
Step-by-step explanation:
C is wrong...............
If a< c< b then a<c and c<b
Separate the equation into 2 separate ones and solve them:
X-9 < 4x +3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
X-12 < 4x
Subtract x from both sides:
-12< 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
X > -4
4x+3 < 27
Subtract 3 from both sides
4x < 24
Divide both sides by 4
X <6
Combine to get one inequality:
-4<x<6

(-1 + -4x)(4 + -5x) = 0</span>
