Answer:

x > -12

Step-by-step explanation:

6(x + 3) - 2 < 8(x + 5)

Distribute;

6x + 18 - 2 < 8x + 40

6x + 16 < 8x + 40

Subtract 8x from both sides;

-2x + 16 < 40

Subtract 16 from both sides;

-2x < 24

Divide both sides by -2

x > -12

The sign changes when it is divided by a negative number

The answer is x>-12

First you must use distributive property to simplify.

6x+18-2

Then, you must subtract 18 on both sides

6x-2

Next, add 2 on both sides

6x

Then, subtract 8x on both sides

-2x

Finally, Divide both sides by -2. Don't forget to switch the equality sign because the variable was changed to a positive using division.

x>-12

Answer:

  D. (1.6 + 3) × (4 − 2) ÷ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The order of operations requires that multiplication and division be done in order of appearance, left to right, before addition and subtraction. Operations in parentheses take priority.

To get 4.6, you need to add 3 to 1.6. The various forms of 3×4-2÷2 all give 12-1 = 11, not 3.

The grouping that gets it right is ...

  (1.6 + 3) × (4 − 2) ÷ 2

  = 4.6×2÷2

  = 9.2÷2

  = 4.6

Answer:

4n-7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you know that Sam's equation is 4n, since it is 4 times Declan's value n. Next, you take Sam's equation and subtract 7 from that value, since Amaya has 7 fewer cards than Sam. The final equation will be 4n-7.
