-5(x - 1) greater than -40

Mathematics
1 answer:
sergey [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x < 9  

Step-by-step explanation:

Writing this entirely with symbols, we get:

-5(x - 1) > -40

We must solve for x.  

Carrying out the multiplication, we get:

-5x + 5 > -40, or

-5x > -45

Dividing both sides by -5 isolates x:

x < 9  

Note that when working with an inequality such as this one, dividing both sides by a negative number requires changing the direction of the inequality symbol.

Tamiku [17]
To find the length of the wire, use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
18^2 + 40^2 = c ^2
324 + 1600 = c^2
1924 = c^2
44 = c

The wire is approximately 44 feet.
