What is the answer to. 4x + 7<8

1 answer:

8 0

First, subtract 7 on both sides. Now, you have 4x<1. Divide by 4 on both sides. Finally, you get x<1/4 (a quarter or said as one-fourth). So, x<1/4.

Arjun and Jessica each improved their yards by planting daylilies and shrubs. They bought their

Anvisha [2.4K]

Hi there! Let me know if you have questions about my answer:

One shrub is $11.

One daylily is $4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost of each item, write a system of equations, one equation for what each person bought, and solve for each variable.

Define your variables.

let 'd' be the cost of one daylily

let 'r' be the cost of one shrub

Create a system using the variables and information from the question.

Write an equation for what Arjun bought:

5d + 7r = 97 5 daylilies, 7 shrubs, totaling $97

Write an equation for what Jessica bought:

2d + 11r = 129 2 daylilies, 11 shrubs, totaling $129

Solve the system.

I will solve the system algebraically, using the substitution method. Isolate one variable in one of the equations.

I will isolate 'd' in Jessica's equation:

$2d + 11r = 129$ Start with Jessica's equation

$\frac{2d + 11r}{2} = \frac{129}{2}$ Divide everything in the equation by 2

$d + \frac{11r}{2} = \frac{129}{2}$ Simplify

$d = \frac{129}{2} - \frac{11r}{2}$ Isolate 'd' by subtracting $\frac{11r}{2}$ from both sides.

Now you have an expression for 'd'.

Substitute Arjun's equation with the expression for 'd'. Solve for 'r' to find the cost of one shrub.

$5d + 7r = 97$ Start with Arjun's equation

$5(\frac{129}{2} - \frac{11r}{2}) + 7r = 97$ Substitute 'd' for $d = \frac{129}{2} - \frac{11r}{2}$

$\frac{5*129}{2} - \frac{5*11r}{2} + 7r = 97$ Distribute the 5

$\frac{645}{2} - \frac{55r}{2} + 7r = 97$ Simplify the numerators

$\frac{645}{2} - \frac{55r}{2} + \frac{14r}{2} = 97$ Change 7r to a fraction over 2

$\frac{645}{2} - \frac{41r}{2} = 97$ Combine like terms, the terms with 'r'

$\frac{645-41r}{2} = 97$ Simplify

$645-41r = 194$ Multiply both sides by 2

$-41r = 194-645$ Subtract 645 from both sides

$-41r = -451$ Divide both sides by –41

$r = 11$ Solved for cost of one shrub

Substitute 'r' for 11 using either Arjun's or Jessica's equation. Then, isolate 'd' to solve for the cost of one daylily.

I will use Arjun's equation.

$5d + 7r = 97$ Start with Arjun's equation

$5d + 7(11) = 97$ Substitute 'r' for r = 11

$5d + 77 = 97$ Simplify. Subtract 77 from both sides.

$5d = 20$ Divide both sides by 5.

$d = 4$ Solved for the cost of one daylily

I promise I will mark as brainiest if a speed of a car increase its average speed in a journey of 200 miles by 5 mile/hour the j

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\sf \ \ \ \dfrac{\sqrt{4025}-5}{2}=29.22144... \ \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

Let's note the original speed of the car v

it means that in 1 hour he is going v miles

so to go 200 miles it takes ( in hour)

$\dfrac{200}{v}$

If the speed of the car is v+5 than to go 200 miles it takes (in hour)

$\dfrac{200}{v+5}$

and this time is one hour less so we can write

$\boxed{\sf \ \ \dfrac{200}{v+5}=\dfrac{200}{v}-1 \ \ }$

We can multiply by v(v+5) both parts of the equation so

$200v=200(v+5)-v(v+5)\\\\200v=200v+1000-v^2-5v\\\\v^2+5v-1000=0$

$\Delta=b^2-4ac=5^2+4*1000=4025\\\\ \text{There are potential solutions }\\\\\ \ \ \ \ x_1=\dfrac{-5-\sqrt{4025}}{2}\\\\\ \ \ \ \ x_2=\dfrac{-5+\sqrt{4025}}{2}$

Only one is positive and this is is

$x_1=\dfrac{\sqrt{4025}-5}{2}=29.22144...$

So the original speed is 29.22144... mph

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you
