3(x-7)+8=-20
Multiply the bracket by 3
(3)(x)(3(-7)+8= -20
3x-21+8= -20
3x-13= -20
Move -13 to the other side. Sign changes from -13 to +13.
3x-13+13= -20+13
3x= -7
Divide by 3
3x/3= -7/3
x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3
Answer : x= -7/3 or in mixed number : -2 1/3

Given inequality
=> −2(x+1)≥3x+8
=>

now multiply with - on both sides.
As we know now sign will change
=> 5x >_ -10
Now divide by 5 on both sides
=> x >_ -2
HOPE IT HELPED YOU.

Number of seats = 42
Seats per row x row = 1302
s x r = 1302
rows + 11 = seats per row
r + 11 = s
s x r = 1302
(r + 11) x r = 1302
r^2 + 11r = 1302
r^2 + 11r - 1302 = 0
(r + 42) x (r - 31) = 0
r = -43 or 31
Cannot have negative rows so the number of rows is 31, and the number of seats per row is 31 + 11 = 42
Check: 31 x 42 = 1302 :)
