Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
14+8=22... 6 is two less than 8 so x is two less than 14. 6+14=18
Answer:
2 < x < 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>< This symbol means 'less than'</u>. The number you put on its left side is less than the number on its right side.
<u>> This symbol means 'greater than'</u>. The number put on its left is greater than its number on the right.
Think of them like a mouth. Remember the 'open side' wants to eat more.
Translate words to symbols:
'x is less than 5'
x < 5
'x is greater than 2'
x > 2
Put them together. The < and > symbols change directions, but x on the closed side of 5. Keep x on the open side of 2.
2 < x < 5
Don't confuse < and > with ≤ and ≥.
≤ and ≥ mean 'less than OR equal to' and greater than OR equation to'.
First off, let's find the LCM of both 5 and 6 to easily compare.
LCM = 30
3/5 = 18/30
10/6 = 50/30
18
30
These ratios aren't proportional. Hope this helps!
