What is the solution to the inequality 7<=-3x-4

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The nearest option is -3 (negative 3)

So, Option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the inequality $7 \leq -3x-4$

Solving:

Step 1: Switching sides of inequality and reversing the inequality

$-3x-4\geq 7$

Step 2: Adding 4 on both sides

$-3x-4+4\geq 7+4\\-3x\geq 11$

Step 3: Dividing both sides by -3 and reversing the inequality

$\frac{-3x}{-3}\leq \frac{11}{-3} \\x\leq -3.6\\$

The nearest option is -3 (negative 3)

So, Option B is correct.

The ratio of the number of dolls Jacky had to the number of dolls Peter had was 5:2 but, after Jacky gave 15 dolls to Peter, the

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

70 dolls

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The ratio is 5:2, which are division of a whole. They can be represented as 5x and 2x.

Jacky has 5x dolls, and Peter has 2x dolls. They were equal after subtracting 15 dolls from 5x and adding them to 2x.

Equation:

5x - 15 = 2x + 15

Solve:

5x - 15 = 2x + 15
5x - 30 = 2x
5x = 2x + 30
3x = 30
x = 10

So Jacky has 5(10) dolls, or 50 dolls, and Peter has 2(10) or 20 dolls.

The total sum is 70 dolls.

product of nine and a number - 9*x = 9x

added to 6 => 9x+6

9x + 6 = 24

now 9x = 18 and x = 18/9 = 2

and now keeping x value = 9 *(2)+6 we get 18+6 = 24

so lhs = rhs = 24
