<h2><em><u>Answer:</u></em></h2><h2><em><u>First, solve each inequality. I'll solve the first one first. </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>7 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>≥ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>2 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>− </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>5 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>12 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>≥ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>2 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>6 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>≥ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>Therefore, x could be any number less than or equal to 6. In interval notation, this looks like: </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>( </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>− </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>∞ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>, </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>6 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>] </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>The parenthesis means that the lower end is not a solution, but every number above it is. (In this case, the lower end is infinity, so a parenthesis must be used, since infinity is not a real number and so it cannot be a solution.) The bracket means that the upper end is a solution. In this case, it indicates that not only could  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> be any number less than 6, but it could also be 6. </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>Let's try the second example: </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>3 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>− </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>2 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>4 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>4 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>3 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>− </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>2 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>16 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>3 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>18 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>6 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>Therefore, x could be any number greater than 6, but x couldn't be 6, since that would make the two sides of the inequality equal. In interval notation, this looks like: </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>( </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>6 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>, </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>∞ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>) </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>The parentheses mean that neither end of this range is included in the solution set. In this case, it indicates that neither 6 nor infinity are solutions, but every number in between 6 and infinity is a solution (that is, every real number greater than 6 is a solution). </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>Now, the problem used the word "OR", meaning that either of these equations could be true. That means that either  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> is on the interval  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>( </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>− </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>∞ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>, </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>6 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>] </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> or the interval  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>( </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>6 </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>, </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>∞ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>) </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>. In other words,  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> is either less than or equal to 6, or it is greater than 6. When you combine these two statements, it becomes clear that  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> could be any real number, since no matter what number  </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>x </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> is, it will fall in one of these intervals. The interval "all real numbers" is written like this: </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>( </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>− </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>∞ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>, </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>∞ </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>) </u></em></h2><h2><em><u> </u></em></h2><h2><em><u>Final Answer</u></em></h2><h2><em><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></em></h2>

VXYZ is a rectangle with a length of 20cm and a width of 12 cm. The length of the rectangle is increased by 30%. The width of th
katrin [286]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area is

length × width

increasing the length by 30% means multiplying the original length by 1.3.

increasing the width by 10% means multiplying the original width by 1.1.

so, the new area is (by using the old length and width)

length × 1.3 × width × 1.1 = length × width × 1.3×1.1 =

= old area × 1.3 × 1.1 = old area × 1.43

so, the area increases by 43%.
