<h3>
Answer: a < 14 (Choice B)</h3>
==================================================
Explanation:
Add 4 to both sides
a-4 < 10
a-4+4 < 10+4
a < 14
The reason why we add 4 to both sides is to undo the "minus 4" that's happening to the variable.
Answer:
12 and 7 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is 84 square meters and the width is 5 meters less than the length. 12 is the length and 7 is the width. 7 is 5 less than 12, and 12*7=84.
The length is 12 and the width is 7
Here is one way to solve for x.
Step 1) 2x^2-7=9
Step 2) 2x^2-7+7=9+7
Step 3) 2x^2=16
Step 4) (2x^2)/2=16/2
Step 5) x^2=8
Step 6) sqrt(x^2)=sqrt(8)
Step 7) |x|=sqrt(8)
Step 8) x=sqrt(8) or x=-sqrt(8)
-------------------------------------
Below are explanations/reasons to each of the steps above.
Step 1) Original equation
Step 2) Add 7 to both sides
Step 3) Combine like terms
Step 4) Divide both sides by 2
Step 5) Simplify
Step 6) Apply the square root to both sides. The notation "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
Step 7) Use the rule that sqrt(x^2) = |x| for all real numbers x
Step 8) Use the rule that if |x| = k then x = k or x = -k for some fixed number k.
-------------------------------------
The two solutions are
x = sqrt(8) or x = -sqrt(8)
Answer:
First we must learn to dissect a question.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Part 1
We can list our facts first:
- Every 2 dozen cookies takes 1.5 teaspoons of cinnamon to make
- She needs 13 dozen cookies
She needs 13 dozen cookies. So (13/2)x 1.5 teaspoons
<h3>Part 2</h3>
She needs 9.75 teaspoons and 3 teaspoons make a tablespoon
So..
Hello,
f(g(x))=f(2x+2)=4(2x+2)+21=8x+29
f(g(7))=8*7+29=56+29=85
