3x + 1 < −2x + 8

Fantom [35]3 years ago

Hello there!

The correct answer is B. Why? Well, we cannot choose A, because we don't have a multiplication sign. We cannot choose C because we also don't have a multiplication sign. However, since we have a PLUS sign and a Subtraction sign, we can say that the correct answer is option B.

3x + 1 < -2x + 8

We wanna start by subtracting 1 on both sides

3x + 1 - 1 < -2x + 8 - 1

3x < -2x + 7

Add 2x on both sides

3x + 2x < -2x + 7 + 2x

5x < 7

x < 7/5

I hope this answer helps! As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you. If you have any additional questions, feel free to comment them down below. I'll see you around!

What is the value of y in the system of equations 6x-y=2 and 4x-y=-8

uysha [10]

Answer:

y=28

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-y=2

-y=2-6x

y=6x-2

4x-(6x-2)=-8

4x-6x+2=-8

-2x=-10

x=5

y=6*5-2=30-2=28

y=28

What is the cosine of angle F <br><br>A. 4/5<br>B. 3/4<br>C. 5/4<br>D. 3/5

saveliy_v [14]

Answer: option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the cosine identity:

$cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$

Given the right triangle DFE shown in the image, you can identify that the adjacent side and the hypotenuse for the angle F of this triangle are:

$adjacent=15\\hypotenuse=25$

Now you can substitute values into $cos\alpha=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ and then reduce the fraction.

THerefore you get: $cos(F)=\frac{15}{25}\\\\cos(F)=\frac{3}{5}$
