-6x -17> 8x + 25.
Get x on one side; Subtract 8x from both sides.
-14x -17 > 25.
Add 17 to both sides to get x by itself.
-14x>42.
Divide both sides by -14 (remember to flip the inequality when dividing by negatives).
x <_ 3 is your solution (line under the inequality).
I hope this helps!

Is (x − 4) a factor of f(x) = x3 − 2x2 + 5x + 1? Use either the remainder theorem or the factor theorem to explain your reasonin

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

No, not a factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

By solving for (x-4) and getting x = 4, if we take that value and subtititute it into the original function, it should result in 0 IF it was a factor of the original function.

After substituting it in, you get a vbalue other than 0, meaning that by the factor theorem, (x-4) is not a factor.

The ratio of boys to girls is 4:3 .T here are 35 students in a class how many students are boys ?? Pleaseee help

evablogger [386]

There are 20 boys in the class. The ratio is 4:3 so that means 4 out of 7 are boys and 3 out of 7 are girls. Divide 35 by 7 and you get 5. 5 times 4 is 20. 5 times 3 is 15. add them together and you have 35 students in total. So 20 students are boys and 15 students are girls.

ANSWER IF YOU LOVE YOUR LORD!!!! Which graph represents the solution to: 2k+8<5k-1?

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Third graph

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the solution to the equation of inequality given.

2k + 8 < 5k - 1

Subtract 5k from both sides

2k + 8 - 5k < 5k - 1 - 5k

-3k + 8 < -1

Subtract 8 from both sides

-3k + 8 - 8 < -1 - 8

-3k < -9

Divide both sides by -3. (Note: < will change to > when dividing both sides with negative number)

$\frac{-3k}{-3}$ > $\frac{-9}{-3}$

k > 3

The graph that will represent this solution will show that all values of k are greater than 3. 3 is not included as a solution. The "o" on top of the 3 on the number line won't be shaded to indicate that 3 is not included. And also, the arrow will point from 3 towards our right.

Therefore, the 3rd graph is the answer.
