Answer:
x ≥ 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: subtract 2 from both sides
Now you have; -3/4 x ≤ -9
Step 2: divide both sides by -3/4
Now you have x ≥ 12
(when dividing an inequality by a negative you have to flip the sign)
Therefore the answer is x ≥ 12
The perimeter is the sum of all the sides, so P = (5x -7) + (3x-4) + (2x -6). Then group like terms so you have p = 5x + 3x + 2x -7-4-6 and end up with P = 10x - 17
( x + 1 )/ 3 = x + 2
Multiply 3 on both sides
x + 1 = 3x + 6
Subtract 6 on both sides
x - 5 = 3x
Subtract x from both sides
-5 = 2x
Divide 2 from both sides
x = -2.5
D 2:1, because a dime is worth twice as much as a nickel
Because the question has number of nickels listed first in the ratio that makes the answer 2:1 as opposed to B 1:2. Also, two nickels equal the same amount as one dime so for every two nickels there is one dime. In this case, there are 728 nickels and 364 dimes. 728/364 = 2/1 (simplifies down to the fourth ratio given)
The perimeter of a rectangle, is all of the sides added up.
In a rectangle, there are two widths (right and left), and two lengths (up and down)
So:
Perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length.
To get the equation we just substitute in the values that we are given:
length = (x)
width = (x - 4)
perimeter = 87
So just put these values into: perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length:
87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
_____________________________
Answer:
The equation is: 87 = 2(x) + 2(x - 4)
<em>(note: this can be simplified down like so:</em>
<em>87 = 2x + 2x - 8</em>
<em>87 = 4x - 8</em>
<em>95 = 4x</em>
23.75 = x
