<em>Identify</em>
2(4 + 2x) ≥ 5x + 5
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- [Distributive Property] Distribute 2: 8 + 4x ≥ 5x + 5
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 5x on both sides: 8 - x ≥ 5
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 8 on both sides: -x ≥ -3
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide -1 on both sides: x ≤ 3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 26 letters in the alphabet. Take 325 and divide it by 26 to get an answer of 12.5. We can round this number to 13. Therefore, the 13th letter in the alphabet is M and will be your answer.
Number of books each of them have:
Jaime: x
Grant: x - 6
Ky: 3 (x - 6)
There are 176 books in total, so we can write it down as:
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 (x - 6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 * x + 3 * (-6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 2x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 5x - 24 / + 24 (both sides)
5x = 200 / ÷ 5 (both sides)
x = 40
Doublecheck:
Jamie: 40
Grant: 40 - 6 = 34
Ky: 3 (40 - 6) = 3 * 34 = 102
102 + 34 + 40 = 176, so it's correct :)
Answer:
x - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, "simplify" directs that you 1) carry out the indicated multiplication and 2) combine like terms.
-3(x+3)+4x = -3x - 9 + 4x = x - 9
In a geometric progression:
a, b, c, d...
The common ratio can be obtained using:
b/a = c/b = d/c
b/a = 112 / 64 = 1.75
c/b = 196 / 112 = 1.75
d/c = 343 / 196 = 1.75
The common ratio = 1.75
