This is a work problem. It can be solved as follows:

Houston = 1/x
Dominique = (1/2x)
Together = 1/5

Then, we add Houston and Dominique:

1/x + 1/2x = 1/5

Solve for x,

x = 2/15

Therefore, it would take 15/2 hours for Houston to ice by himself, the last option.

-23 +4 |x+10| < 37 I need help solving please can you also explain how to do it, thanks.​
natka813 [3]

Answer: - 25 < x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:The first thing is to Add 23 to both sides

The equation becomes

4 / x + 10 / < 37 + 23

4/x +10 / < 60

Divide through by 4

/ x +10/ < 15

to remove the modulus sign we have

-15< x + 10 < 15

we then solve one by one

firstly , - 15 < x + 10

 subtract 10 from both sides

⇒ - 15 - 10 < x

     -25 < x

solving the second part

x + 10 < 15

  x < 15 - 10

  x < 5

combining the two answers

-25 < x < x

Solve for n. Round to the tenths place, if necessary.

N = 14.4 

so it would be "B" 

24 x 5.85 = 140.4 

9.75 x n = 9.75n

140.4/9.75 = 14.4 
n=14.4

Explain answer <br> GIVING BRAINIEST
AveGali [126]

Answer:

The slope of the line is 2. To find the slope I marked two points on the line, which were (-3, 0) and (-2, 2). Then I used the \frac{Rise}{Run} technique. Moving up 2 units and to the right 1 unit, which would be represented by \frac{2}{1}.
