-5(x+7)<-10.
You need to use the distributive property.
-5x - 35 < -10.
You need to cancel out -35, so you add it to itself, & -10.
-5x < 25.
You need to divide -5 by itself & 25.
x>-5.

kogti [31]

Hello,

Let's
V1 the velocity of the 1st bricklayer,
V2 the velocity of the 2nd bricklayer,

1wall=V1*6==>V1=w/6
1wall=V2*4==>V2=w/4
==>V1+V2=w/6+w/4=10w*24=5w/12

Let's t the time for the 2 bricklayer to build the wall
(V1+V2)t=w
==>5w/12*t=w
==>t=12/5 (h)=2h24min.
