The solution to this inequality is 4 < x or x > 4.
In order to solve this, follow the steps to solving an equation with one variable. The steps are below for you.
2x + 8 < 5x - 4 ------> Subtract 2x from both sides
8 < 3x - 4 -----> Add 4 to both sides
12 < 3x -----> Divide both sides by 3
4 < x
Answer:
1. 10% of the bill is $138. The final bill once 10% is taken off is $1242.
2. 20% of the total is $34.10. The final total once the 20% is taken off is $136.4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. A crash repair bill comes to $1380.00. How much is 10% of the bill? What is the final bill once 10% is taken off?
To find how much is 10% of the bill, we multiply the bill by 0.1
0.1*1380 = 138
10% of the bill is $138.
To find the final bill, we subtract the initial bill by 10%.
1380 - 138 = 1242
The final bill once 10% is taken off is $1242.
2. A person buys a new fan belt, a new alternator, and a new water pump for their car. The total comes to $170.50. What is 20% of the total? How much is the final total once the 20% is taken off?
Same logic as above.
0.2*170.50 = 34.1
20% of the total is $34.10.
170.50 - 34.1 = 136.4
The final total once the 20% is taken off is $136.4
Answer:
Minimum 66 feet of molding that he needs.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a square ceiling has a diagonal of 23 ft.
If the sides of the square ceiling are 'a' feet, then applying Pythagoras Theorem we can write, a² + a² = 23²
⇒ 2a² = 23²
⇒ a = 16.2634 feet (Approximate)
Now, the perimeter of the square ceiling will be 4a = 65.05 feet.
If the cost of molding along the perimeter of the ceiling is in per foot, then a minimum of 66 feet of molding that he needs. (Answer)
