The answer should be X>4

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :  

                    2*x+8-(5*x-4)<0  

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Pulling out like terms :

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  -3x + 12  =   -3 • (x - 4)  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

Step  2  :

2.1    Divide both sides by  -3  

Remember to flip the inequality sign:  

Solve Basic Inequality :

2.2      Add  4  to both sides

            x > 4

Answer:

97.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

d = 65t

where d is the distance in miles and t is the time in hours

Therefore, to calculate how many miles the car travels in 1.5 hours, substitute t = 1.5 into the equation:

d = 65 x 1.5 = 97.5 miles

Their 'closing speed' is 60 - 50 = 10 km/hr

they have 20 km between them

 at closing speed this will take   20 km / 10 km/hr = 2 hours for the cars to meet....this would be at 14:00    or  2 oclock

What is the recursive formula when given the explicit formula for the following geometric sequence?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a careful look at a(n) =  6(-8)^(n-1).

The first term is 6.  This is the result if we let n = 1; 6(-8)^0 = 6(1) = 6.  Thus, we can immediately eliminate possible answer choices A and D.

What's the next term?  Knowing that the first term, a(1), is 6, the next term is found by multiplying this 6 by (-8)^1, obtaining -48.

The next (third) term is found by multiplying this -48 by (-8)^2, obtaining -48*(+64), or - 3072.

Note that the sign of (-8)^(n-1) alternates, being odd when n-1 is odd and even when n-1 is even.

Answer C is the correct one.
