I can't figure out this inequality 5+ 5(x + 4) < 20. Any tips on how I can solve?

Remember you can do anything to an equation or inequality as long as ou do it to both sides
also, when multiplying by a negative number in an inequality, don't forget to flip the sign

5+5(x+4)<20
minus 5 from both sides
5(x+4)<15
divide both sides by 5
x+4<3
minus 4 from both sides
x<-1

18 – 12 + x = 10 What value of x makes the equation true?

Answer:

explanation:

well 18 minus 12 would equal 6. correct? so we would add x to 6 so the new equation would be 6 + x = 10 or to make it easier just do 10 - x = 6

Since q(x) is inside p(x), find the x-value that results in q(x) = 1/4

$\frac{1}{4} = 5 - x^2\ \Rightarrow\ x^2 = 5 - \frac{1}{4}\ \Rightarrow\ x^2 = \frac{19}{4}\ \Rightarrow \\
x = \frac{\sqrt{19} }{2}$

so we conclude that
$q(\frac{\sqrt{19} }{2} ) = 1/4$

therefore

$p(1/4) = p\left( q\left(\frac{ \sqrt{19} }{2} \right) \right)$

plug $x=\sqrt{19}/2$ into p( q(x) ) to get answer

$p(1/4) = p\left( q\left( \frac{ \sqrt{19} }{2} \right) \right)\ \Rightarrow\ \dfrac{4 - \left( \frac{\sqrt{19} }{2}\right)^2 }{ \left( \frac{\sqrt{19} }{2}\right)^3 } \Rightarrow \\ \\ \dfrac{4 - \frac{19}{4} }{ \frac{19\sqrt{19} }{8}} \Rightarrow \dfrac{8\left(4 - \frac{19}{4}\right) }{ 8 \cdot \frac{19\sqrt{19} }{8}} \Rightarrow \dfrac{32 - 38}{19\sqrt{19}} \Rightarrow \dfrac{-6}{19\sqrt{19}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{19}}{\sqrt{19}}\Rightarrow$

$\dfrac{-6\sqrt{19} }{19 \cdot 19} \\ \\ \Rightarrow -\dfrac{6\sqrt{19} }{361}$

$p(1/4) = -\dfrac{6\sqrt{19} }{361}$
