Answer:

x > 9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

don't get scared :) we can isolate the variable easily!

distribute

5 -2( 3x-4) -2x < -6x + 4

5 -6x + 8 - 2x < -6x + 4

-8x + 13 < -6x + 4

+6x -13 +6x -13

-2x < -9

x > 9/2

change the direction of the sign because we divided by a negative

There you go!

I hope this helps (:

What is the solution of the system

Fantom [35]

Y-2x=8
16+4x=2y
Rearrange the first equation equal to y
Y=2x+8
Sub the rearranged equation into the second equation and solve for x
16+4x=2(2x+8)
16+4x=4x+16
16-16=4x-4x
0=0
There would be no solution
Hope this helps!

Trevor is making 2/3 of a recipe for chicken noodle soup. He adds ½ cup of chopped celery. The equation 2/3 c = 1/2 can be used

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

Cups of chopped celery in original recipe = $\frac{3}{4}\ cups$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Trevor is making 2/3 of a recipe

Number of cups of chopped celery used = 1/2 cup

The following equation can be used to find the original number of cups of chopped celery used in recipe.

$\frac{2}{3}c=\frac{1}{2}$

Multiplying both sides by 3/2

$\frac{3}{2}*\frac{2}{3}c=\frac{1}{2}*\frac{3}{2}\\\\c= \frac{3}{4}\\$

Hence,

Cups of chopped celery in original recipe = $\frac{3}{4}\ cups$
