Hint: You won't flip the sign in every problem. ONLY FUP it when you or by a 9 - 2x < 6x - 15 Solutions You solve and graph t
svetoff [14.1K]

You only flip the inequality sign when you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number.

================================================

Problem 1

3 - 8x \ge -29\\\\-8x \ge -29-3\\\\-8x \ge -32\\\\x \le \frac{-32}{-8} \ \text{ inequality sign flip}\\\\x \le 4

The inequality sign flip happens because we divided both sides by -8.

The graph will have a closed circle at 4 with shading to the left.

Three solutions are x = 0, x = 1, x = 2. You can pick any three numbers you want as long as they are 4 or smaller.

================================================

Problem 2

1x+2x-7 < 6\\\\3x-7 < 6\\\\3x < 6+7\\\\3x < 13\\\\x < \frac{13}{3}\\\\x < 4 \frac{1}{3}

The graph will have an open circle at 13/3 = 4&1/3 = 4.333 approx. The shading is to the left. No inequality sign flip happens because we divided both sides by a positive number.

Your choice of three solutions is correct. You can pick anything smaller than 4.3333

================================================

Problem 3

9-2x \le 6x-15\\\\-2x-6x \le -15-9\\\\-8x \le -24\\\\x \ge \frac{-24}{-8} \ \text{ inequality sign flip}\\\\x \ge 3

The solution set is any value 3 or larger. Three solutions are x = 5, x = 6 and x = 7.

The graph has a closed circle at 3 on the number line. The shading is to the right.

A company has a cost equation of c=0.925x^2-4x+20 and a profit equation of p=-1.125x^2+6x+40. Solve for the breakeven point.
lana66690 [7]
0.925x^2 - 4x + 20 = -1.125x^2 + 6x + 40 (at break even point)

2.05x^2 - 10x - 20 = 0

x =  [ - (-10) +/- sqrt(100 - 4*2.05*-20) / (2*2.05) 

x =  6.40, -1.52   Ignore the negative 

Answer is  6.40

You need to buy 8 packages of meat for a cookout. A package of hot dogs costs $2.19 and a package of hamburgers costs $5.89. You
Daniel [21]

Answer:

1.89x + 5.19y = 31.62.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the pagke of hot dags be x

Let the pakage of hamburgers be y

Now they total up tp 8 packages.

xEliminate the cost

x+y=8

y=8-x

Cost of hotdogs = $1.89

Cost of hamburgers = $5.19

1.89x+5.19y=31.62

1.89x+5.19(8-x)=31.62

1.89x+41.52-5.19=31.62

-3.3x=--9.9

x=3

y=8-3

y=5
