Answer:8(1/2x - 1/4)> 12 - 2x
a.x > 7
b.x > 7/3
c.x > 5/3
d.x > 5/3
Step-by-step explanation: Solve the inequality 12(1/2x-1/3)>8-2x
To solve this equation, lets move all of the variables to one side of the equation and the constants to the other.
0.12x - 1.5 = 0.24x - 0.06
Subtract 0.12x from both sides of the equation
-1.5 = 0.12x - 0.06
Add 0.06 to both sides of the equation
-1.44 = 0.12x
Divide both sides by 0.12 to isolate x
x = -12
Connie + 1 friend +2 friend = 10
3 people = 10 miles
3 people/3= 10 miles / 3
Each friend rode 3 1/3 miles
1.
Calculate the sum
5x - 10 + 7 = 65 - 20x + 32
Move terms
5x - 3 = 97 - 20x
Collect the like terms and calculate
5x + 20x = 97 +3
Divide both sides by 25
25x = 100

I skipped some steps because it would be too long :/
2.
Multiply parenthesis by 8
20x>8(4x - 5) -20
Calculate
20x>32x - 40 - 20
Move variable to the left
20x>32x-60
Collect like terms
20x - 32x > -60
Divide both sides by -12
-12x>-60
