Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(3x - 1) ≥ 4x - 6 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

6x - 2 ≥ 4x - 6 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

2x - 2 ≥ - 6 ( add 2 to both sides )

2x ≥ - 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x ≥ - 2

The only value in the list greater than - 2 is - 1

x = - 1 is in the solution set

12345 what is the answer if you multiply 1x2x3x4x5 and do the same with subtraction, addition and devision, in that order. Then

Alexandra [31]

Well, we just need to perform the operations:

Multiplication: $1\cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 4 \cdot 5 = 120$
Subtraction: $1-2-3-4-5 = -13$
Addition: $1+2+3+4+5 = 15$
Division: $1 \div 2 \div 3 \div 4 \div 5 = \frac{1}{120}$

So, if you add all the numbers together you get

$120-13+15+\dfrac{1}{120} = 122 + \dfrac{1}{120}$

Or, if you prefer,

$\dfrac{1681}{120}$
