As was the case in your previous question, this problem involves setting two ratios equal to each other. We call such an equation a proportion.

 

16 miles   =   x miles

(1/2) inch      2 3/4 inches

 

x = (11/4) * 16 = (11/4) * 2 * 16 = 88 miles

      (1/2)

If 2(6 + 3x) + 1 = - 5 + 3(x - 1), what is the value of x?
Stels [109]

Answer: x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

2(6 + 3x) + 1 = - 5 + 3(x - 1)

(2) (6) + (2) (3x) + 1 = -5 + (3) (x) + (3) (-1)

12 + 6x + 1 = - 5 + 3x + - 1

( 6x ) + ( 12 - 1 ) = ( 3x ) + ( -5 + -3 )

6x + 13 = 3x - 8

6x + 13 - 3x = 3x - 8 - 3x

3x + 13 = -8

3x + 13 - 13 = -8 - 13

3x = -21

3x/3 -21/3

X = -7

Inequality in Mathematics

The two expressions that make up an equation or an inequality are connected in a mathematical statement. The equal sign (=) in an equation denotes the equality of the two expressions. The symbols >, <, ≤, or ≥ are used to denote an inequality, when the two expressions aren't always equal.

Type of Inequality

The given expression, x <= y denotes the type of inequality where the possible values of x are either less than y or equal to less. The value of x cannot be greater than y in any case.
