Answer:
x > -7
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable, x. Treat the < sign like an equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction
First, subtract 15 from both sides:
-8x + 15 (-15) < 71 (-15)
-8x < 71 - 15
-8x < 56
Next, divide -8 from both sides of the equation. Note that when you divide by a negative number, you must flip the sign:
(-8x)/-8 < (56)/-8
x < (56)/-8
x > -7
x > -7 is your answer.

Answer:
1,1 and 3,-7
Step-by-step explanation:
1=x
1=y
they are both in positive
x=3
y=-7
here 3 is in positive and 7 is in negative
Answer:
in
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must set up an equation. 
Then, you must solve for x. 
Answer:
A. 12 + 8x
B. x - 6 < 72
C. x - 5 = 2/3x
D. 2x : 14 or 2x/14
E. -9x + 3y - 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There are no factors outside the parentheses that need to be distributed, so the parentheses can be simply dropped:
6 -2x +15 -3x
The terms can be rearranged to put like terms next to each other:
-2x -3x +6 +15
and the like terms can be combined.
-5x +21 . . . . simplified expression
__
Put the value of x where x is, then do the arithmetic.
-5(-0.2) +21 = 1 +21 = 22
