Answer:

-8 < x

Step-by-step explanation:

divide both sides by 5 to get -x < 8. Since we want x only: (+x) and (-8) at both sides to get -8< x

Nina [5.8K]

Let x be the number of hours ling work on monday.

We know that she worked three more hours on tuesday that in monday, this can be express as :

 x+3

We also know that in wednesday she worked on more hour than twice the number on mondays, this can be expressed as:

2x+1

The total number of hours she worked this three days in two more than five the number of hours she worked on monday, this can be express as :

5x+2\\

Now , once we have all the expressions we add the expressions of the days and equate them to the total

x+(x+3)+(2x+1)=5x+2

Now we solve the equation

x+(x+3)+(2x+1)=5x+2\\x+x+3+2x+1=5x+2\\4x+4=5x+2\\5x-4x=4-2\\x=2

Therefore , she worked 2 hours on monday.

What is community property and associative property
hichkok12 [17]
It's "commutative property," which says that (for addition/multiplication) order of the operator doesn't matter. For eg, 3 * 5 = 5 * 3. 

Associative property (again, of multiplication and addition) means that it doesn't matter how you solve an expression if the same operand is used and some numbers are grouped. For eg. 3 * (5 * 4) = (3 * 5) * 4.

Determine whether the statements are True or False. Justify your answer with an explanation.

Problem 1

<h3>Answer: False</h3>

---------------------------------

Explanation:

The notation (f o g)(x) means f( g(x) ). Here g(x) is the inner function.

So,

f(x) = x+1

f( g(x) ) = g(x) + 1 .... replace every x with g(x)

f( g(x) ) = 6x+1 ... plug in g(x) = 6x

(f o g)(x) = 6x+1

Now let's flip things around

g(x) = 6x

g( f(x) ) = 6*( f(x) ) .... replace every x with f(x)

g( f(x) ) = 6(x+1) .... plug in f(x) = x+1

g( f(x) ) = 6x+6

(g o f)(x) = 6x+6

This shows that (f o g)(x) = (g o f)(x)  is a false equation for the given f(x) and g(x) functions.

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

Problem 2

<h3>Answer: True</h3>

---------------------------------

Explanation:

Let's say that g(x) produced a number that wasn't in the domain of f(x). This would mean that f( g(x) ) would be undefined.

For example, let

f(x) = 1/(x+2)

g(x) = -2

The g(x) function will always produce the output -2 regardless of what the input x is. Feeding that -2 output into f(x) leads to 1/(x+2) = 1/(-2+2) = 1/0 which is undefined.

So it's important that the outputs of g(x) line up with the domain of f(x). Outputs of g(x) must be valid inputs of f(x).
