Answer:
x > 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 8x + 2x - 16 < - 5x + 7x ← simplify both sides
- 6x - 16 < 2x ( subtract 2x from both sides )
- 8x - 16 < 0 ( add 16 to both sides )
- 8x < - 16 ( divide both sides by - 8 )
Remembering to reverse the symbol as a consequence of dividing by a negative value.
x > 2
<span>First note that y cannot equal -7 or -1 as division by zero is undefined. So that if it comes up in our solution we know that it is not a real solution.
[(y+4)/(y+7)]+1=(y+3)/(y+1) make the left side have a common denominator
(y+4+y+7)/(y+7)=(y+3)/(y+1) combine like terms on left side
(2y+11)/(y+7)=(y+3)/(y+1) cross multiply
(2y+11)(y+1)=(y+3)(y+7) expand
2y^2+13y+11=y^2+10y+21 subtract y^2 from both sides
y^2+13y+11=10y+21 subtract 10y from both sides
y^2+3y+11=21 subtract 21 from both sides
y^2+3y-10=0 expand so factoring is easier
y^2-2y+5y-10=0 factor
y(y-2)+5(y-2)=0 which is equal to
(y+5)(y-2)=0
y=-5 or 2</span>
This is how you solve this problem:
.10d + .05n = 5.25
(plug in the number of dimes we have)
(21 x .1) + .05n = 5.25
(multiply number of dimes x value of the dime)
2.10 + .05n = 5.25
(subtract 2.10 from both sides)
.05n = 3.15
(divide both sides by .05 to get the number of nickels)
n = 63 nickels
Hope this helps!
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Midpoint means the middle, so all you have to do is divide 42 by 2 :)
