First you must distribute the 2 to the numbers inside the parentheses, which would be 1 and -x...
(2 * 1) + (2 * -x) > 2x
2 + (-2x) > 2x
2 - 2x >2x
Add 2x to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 2x is being subtracted, addition (the opposite of subtraction) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the left side and bring it over to the right side.
2 - 2x + 2x > 2x + 2x
2 + 0 > 4x
2 > 4x
Next divide 4 to both sides to finish isolating x. Since 4 is being multiplied by x, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 4 out (in this case it will make 4 one) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.
2/4 > 4x / 4
1/2 > x
or
x < 1/2

Answer: place points at (0,3) and (5,5)
Step-by-step explanation: the formula for a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the point where the line meets the y-axis). Since b is positive 3, place a point at (0,3).
m = 2/5, and since slope is rise over run (distance traveled in y axis over distance traveled in x axis) and it is positive, your next point is 2 up and 5 right, which is (5,5). You could also place a point at (-2,-2).

Answer:
About 33% of students prefer chocolate icecream
Step-by-step explanation:
The actual percentage would be 35%, but none of the other answers are close enough to correct, so I'd have to say the bottom one.
hope this helps you :/
To write a line that is perpendicular you have flip the slope and change the sign so it would be -1/2, then you carry on like normal. So the answer is:
y-6= -1/2(x-9)
