Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the solution to an inequality is

It means the original inequality is true for any values of x which is greater than or equal to 5 and less than 9.
We need to find the smallest value of x that will make the original inequality true.

Therefore, smallest value of x is 5 that will make the original inequality true.
Answer:
Again... <em>m</em> = 2, and <em>c</em> = 1
C. 8
You substitute 8 into x, which makes the equation 5(8-5) = 15. 8-5 is 3, and 5 x 3 = 15.
Answer: 25 < P < 36
15/4 < w < 26/4
35/4 < L < 46/4
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Perimeter is BETWEEN 25 and 36
25 < P < 36
Graph: O--------------O
25 36
Perimeter = 2L + 2w ; substitute L = w + 5
25 < 2(w + 5) + 2w < 36
25 < 2w + 10 + 2w < 36
25 < 4w + 10 < 36
15 < 4w < 26
< w < 
< w < 
Graph: O------------------------O

Perimeter = 2L + 2w ; L = w + 5 --> w = L - 5
25 < 2L + 2(L - 5) < 36
25 < 2L + 2L - 10 < 36
25 < 4L - 10 < 36
35 < 4L < 46
< L < 
< L < 
Graph: O------------------------O

Note: Make sure you use OPEN dots when graphing.
