Answer:

\boxed{x

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-4)>5x+2

Expand brackets.

3x - 12 > 5x+2

Subtract 3x and 2 on both sides.

-12 - 2 > 5x - 3x

-14 > 2x

Divide both sides by 2.

-7 > x

Switch sides.

x < -7

Answer:

-7 > x

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x-4)>5x+2

Distribute

3x-12>5x+2

Subtract 3x from each side

3x-12-3x>5x-3x+2

-12 > 2x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

-12-2>2x+2-2

-14 > 2x

Divide by 2

-14/2 > 2x/2

-7 > x

1.Give one number that makes the inequality x + 7 &gt; 20 true

1. Any number above 13 works. Why? Because 20-7=13, and to be greater than 20, you must add a number larger than 13.

Examples: 14+7 > 20, 30+7 > 20, 100+7 > 20

2. Any number below 25/3 (which is also 8.3 with a repeating 3) works. Why? Because 25/3=8.3 with a repeating 3, and to remain less than 25, you must multiply by a number less than 8.3 with a repeating 3.

Examples: 3(8) < 25, 3(5) < 25, 3(0) < 25

3. 4 buses. 1 bus will hold 60 students, 2 will hold 120, 3 will hold 180, and 4 will hold 240. The question is trying to trick you into putting now 3.3333333333... buses because that's what 200/60 is, but there is no such thing as a third of a bus. So you need at least 4 buses. (There will be an extra 40 spaces for passengers on the 4th bus, but that is okay.)

To find this answer I did 200/60 and got 3.3 with a repeating 3. You must round to the higher whole number. Rounding down to 3 buses leaves you with 20 students without a bus.

4. 19 boxes. 18 boxes will only hold 288 candies. The question is trying to trick you into putting down 18.75 boxes because that's what 300/16 is, but there is no such thing as 75% of a box. So you need at least 19 boxes. (There will be an extra 4 spaces for candies in the 19th box, but that is okay.)

To find this answer I did 300/16 and got 18.75. You must round to the higher whole <span>number. Rounding down to 18 boxes leaves you with 12 candies without a box.</span>

Help plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the slope. Since the line is horizontal, it's slope has to be 0 (this is because slope = rise/run, there is no "rise" in a horizontal line therefore the slope is 0)

Now, we need to find the y-intercept. This is where the line intercepts the y-axis. Looking at the graph, the line intercepts the axis at (0,-4), therefore the y-intercept is -4.

The equation would be:

y=0x-4

y=-4
