Answer: D) No; If x is 5, the expression on the left simplifies to 8, making the inequality false.
In other words, if x = 5, then x+3 becomes 5+3 which ultimately becomes 8, but this is not greater than 8 on the right side.
Your steps could look like this
x+3 > 8
5+3 > 8 ... replace x with 5
8 > 8 ... this is a false inequality
Answer: x=16/17
Step-by-step explanation: 56=34x+24 34x+24−24=56−24 34x/34=32/34/2/2
x=16/17
<h3>
Answer: a = -3 and b = 5</h3>
=================================================
Work Shown:
Multiply top and bottom by
to rationalize the denominator

We end up with something in the form
where a = -3 and b = 5
Just combine like terms: all of the x^2 together, all of the x's together and all of the numbers:
3x2+5x2+5x-2-1
8x2+5x-3 simplified, so letter A
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the given values for a and b into the expression and evaluate
a + b = 43 + (- 29) = 43 - 29 = 14
