2/10 = 4/x
Cross multiply
2x X= 10x4
2x = 40
Eliminate
2x/2 = 40/2
x = 20

When you are trying to find the amount of difference between two values you subtract the value less than the other and there you go, the solution!
I hope it was as simple as that and that this helped!
Answer:
- x < 2.5
- x > 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to do this is to try a number for x and see if it makes the inequality true. A suitable number here is x=0. This value of x is less than 2.5.
<h3>1.</h3>
For x=0, you have ...
5 > -5 . . . . . true; the solution space is x < 2.5
__
<h3>2.</h3>
For x=0, you have ...
-25 > -5(2.5)
-25 > -12.5 . . . . . false; the solution space is x > 2.5
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
<h3>1.</h3>
Subtract 5:
-4x > -10
Divide by -4
x < 2.5
__
<h3>2.</h3>
Divide by -5:
5 < x +2.5
Subtract 2.5
2.5 < x
x > 2.5
8 + 3 (4 - n )
n= 3
8 + 3( 4-3)
8 + 3 * 1
8 + 3 = 11
