How to solve 3x+12-6x<-9

Mathematics
1 answer:
FinnZ [79.3K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x > 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Group the common factors, which are 3x and -6x, so it looks like:

3x - 6x + 12 < -9

-3x + 12 < -9

Subtract 12 from both sides:

-3x < -21

Divide everything by -3 to get your answer. Don't forget when dividing by a negative number, you have to flip the sign:

x > 7

5 p increased by 25% is equal to q decreased by 25%. Work out p as a percentage of q.​
oksano4ka [1.4K]

The answer is no it will be less here's why let say the original amount is A then a p% increase will be A(1+p/100))

Now from this amount we decrease it by p% this gives A(1+p/100)(1-p/100). We can simplify this expression some by letting x=p/100 then we have A(1+x)(1-x) but this is equal to A(1-x2). You can see that the value of what's inside the () is always <1 as long as x>0. If we calculate how much the amount changes we have A(1-x2)-A=-Ax2 is always a loss.

         This is one of the reasons some people lose money in the stock market. If a stock rises 10% and then drops 10% you have actually lost money but it sounds, on the face of it, like you should be even. +10 and -10 percent.

          If we now do the calculation for the 25% up and down we have the final amount is is .9375 which is 1.25*.75. and the change is .9375-1=-.0625. So the net result is down 6.25%

Totally cellular charges $30 for a monthly plan, with an additional .20 per text message. Gnarly Cells charges $40 for a monthly
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

100 texts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of text messages be x. Since we are looking at making both plans equal, we add the fixed monthly charges to the number of messages multiplied by the cost.

The total amount charged by Totally will be 30 + 0.2x

The total amount charged by Gnarly will be

40 + 0.1x

Now since we are trying to get the number of text messages that make both charges equal, we equate the two charges and that is:

30 + 0.2x = 40 + 0.1x

40 - 30 = 0.2x - 0.1x

0.1x = 10

x = 10/0.1 = 100 texts
