Answer:

x < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we need to get x by itself

2(5 - x)>8

Distribute the 2

2*5 -2*x >8

10- 2x >8

Subtract 10 from both sides

10-10 -2x >8 -10

-2x > -2

Divide both sides by -2

-2x/-2> -2/-2

Since we divided by a negative number, we must flip the inequality sign

x < 1

Answer:

x < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(5 - x) > 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

5 - x > 4 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

- x > - 1

Multiply both sides by - 1, reversing the symbol as a result of multiplying by a negative quantity.

x < 1

a store sells a 1 1/4 pound of turkey for 9 dollars what is the unit price of the turkey in the package
Ilya [14]

Answer:

7.20 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/4 can be expressed as 5/4 ((1*4+1) /4)

If price of 5/4 pound of turkey = $9

Price of 1 pound of turkey = $9 / (5/4)

( Same way you'd divide the price of 2 pounds by 2 to get the price of 1 pound)

$9 / (5/4) = $7.2

If D is the midpoint of the segment AC and C is the midpoint of segment DB , what is the length of the segment AB , if AC = 3 cm
Juliette [100K]
<span>A midpoint divides a line or a segment into two equal parts. If D is the midpoint of the segment AC and C is the midpoint of segment DB, what is the length of the segment AB, if AC = 3 cm.</span>

 

If D is the midpoint of AC, then AD=DC

If C is the midpoint of DB, then DC=CB

If AC=3cm. then then DC-3/2=1.5

If DC=1.5 then CB is 1.5 also

AB=AC+CB

AB=3+1.5

AB=4.5
