1 Simplify 5x+17-3x to 2x+17

20+2x<2x+17

2 Cancel 2x on both sides.

20<17

3 Since 20<17 is false, there is no solution
No solution. :)

I hope this helps you understand! :D

Have a great day by the way.

Treat it like an equation, you'll do a simple two-step rearrangement:
20+2x < 5x +17-3x -> 20+2x < 2x+17 -> 3+2x < 2x -> 3 < 0x. Now at this point in solving we run into a problem... nothing times 0 can be greater than 3, so this is undefined

If ab = c - d, which of the following is an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c?

horsena [70]

ANSWER

$d = - ab + c$

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

$ab = c - d$

To find an expression for d in terms of a, b, and c, means we want to make d the subject of the relation.

This means that, we need to isolate d on one side of the equation while all other terms are on the other side.

We subtract from both sides of the equation to obtain,

$ab - c = - d$

We now divide through by -1, to get,

$- ab + c = d$

Or

$d = - ab + c$

The topic is change of subject

How much money would a person have 8 years after they invested $2,000 into an account that has an annual interest rate of 3% tha

madam [21]

The amount of money the person would have in 8 years s $2541.74.

<h3>How much would the person have in 8 years? </h3>

The formula for calculating future value is:

FV = P (1 + r)^nm]

Where:

FV = Future value

P = Present value = $2000
R = interest rate = 3% / 12 = 0.25%
m = number of compounding = 12
N = number of years = 8 years

Value of the account in 8 years with monthly compounding = $2000(1.0025)^(12 x 8) = $2541.74
