They way I solved this is by making a list of all the possible answers for each person, based on one fact at a time that they give you. Then, you can start looking at multiple, and start ruling things out.
Answer:
x>7 or x ≤ -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving the 1st inequality
-6x +14 < -28 --------------- (Collect like terms)
-6x < -28 - 14
-6x < - 42 -------------------- (Divide both sides by -6)
Note: If you decide an inequality expression by a negative value, the inequality sign changes)
-6x/-6 > -42/-6
x > 7
Solving the 2nd inequality
9x + 15 ≤ −12 ----------- (Collect like terms)
9x ≤ −12 - 15
9x ≤ −27 ------------------(Divide both sides by 9)
9
9x/9 ≤ −27/9
x ≤ -3
Bring both results together, we get
x>7 or x ≤ -3
The final result is complex (i.e. can't be combined together).
X + 17 = 3x -31 (opposite angles are equal)
x + 17 = 3x -31
31 +17 = 3x - x
48 = 2x
x = 24
Answer:
You should recruit a total of 525 subjects for the whole study.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question states that you want 175 subjects per group for 3 groups. This indicates that we need to either multiply 175 times 3, or we can add 175 three times to get the total number of subjects we would need to recruit. Group 1 should have 175, Group 2 should have 175 and Group 3 should have 175. Whether we multiply 175 x 3 or add 175+175+175, we get a final anser of 525.
