<u>Answer:</u>

We got the x value as greater than – 3 by adding - 5 on both sides of given inequality expression x + 5 > 2

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, inequality expression is x + 5 > 2

Now, we have to solve for x in the above given inequality expression and tell what we have done.

So, first let us solve for x

Then, x + 5 > 2

To solve for x we have to remove all other terms except x from left hand side.

So, add -5 on both sides.

x + 5 – 5 > 2 – 5

x + 0 > - 3

x > - 3

So, the value of x is greater than - 3

Hence, we got the x value as greater than – 3 by adding - 5 on both sides of given inequality expression

Quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in circle 0 What is m<A

valentinak56 [21]

We know that
A quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle if and only if the opposite angles are supplementary. ( Inscribed Quadrilateral Theorem)
so
m∠B+m∠D=180°
2x+(3x-5)=180
5x=180+5
5x=185
x=185/5
x=37°

m∠A=x+5-----> 37+5------> 42°

the answer is
m∠A is 42°

oksian1 [2.3K]

4n-3=4n-2 subtract 4n from both sides

-3=-2

Since -3!=-2, there is no solution.

So your answer is a.

A baby bird jumps from a tree branch and flutters to the ground. The function "f" models the bird's height (in meters) above the

AURORKA [14]

The answer to this question will depend on the function f itself. Basically you will find the height in meters above the ground of the bird when it jumped when the time t=0s. This is substsitute every t in the function for a value of zero and that way you will get the bird's height at the time it jumped. If you were given a graph for this function, you can find the y-intercept of the graph and that will be the answer as well. The question could be written like this:

A baby bird jumps from a tree branch and flutters to the ground. The function " $f(t)-4.9t^{2}+25$ " models the bird's height (in meters) above the ground as a function of time (in seconds) after jumping. What is bird's height above the ground when it jumped.
