Answer:
x > -17/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write inequality
-2x - 5 < 12
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Add 5 to both sides:</u> -2x < 17
<u>Divide both sides by -2:</u> x > -17/2
Here, we can see that any number greater than -17/2 would work, so x could equal 01234718905731857013570 if we wanted it to, as long as it is greater than -8.5.
One pint would be the answer because a pint in 16 oz
The slope-intercept form of the equation of a straight line:
y=mx+b
m=slope
Therefore; in this equation (y=3x+5); m=3
a)
6x+2y=12
2y=-6x+12
y=-6/2 x + 12/2
y=-3x+6 ⇒ m=-3≠3 (this line is not parallel to "y=3x+5")
b)
-3x+y=8
y=3x+8 ⇒ m=3 (this line es parallel to "y=3x+5")
c)
3y=9x
y=9/3 x
y=3x ⇒ m=3 (this line is parallel to "y=3x+5")
d)
y=-x ⇒ m=-1≠3 (this line is not parallet to "y=3x+5")
Therefore; "-3x+y=8" and "3y=9x" are parallel to "y=3x+5".
