X represents the number of books you have. If you say to a friend "I have more than 25 books" then you can write "x > 25" which says "x is greater than 25"
Something like x = 50 will make x > 25 since 50 is larger than 25. In contrast, a value like x = 20 is going to make x > 25 false because 20 > 25 is false (20 is smaller than 25, not larger)
Answer:
The length is 4 times the width
2x-1=5
2(3)-1=5
6-1=5
5=5
x=3
This can be solve by first solving the proportionality constant
Number electic outlets rewired is directly proportional to
time spent
4 = (1 ½)a
Let be the proportionality constant
A = 8/3
O = (8/3)(7.5)
o = 20 outlets will jamal rewired if he works for 7.5 hrs
It doesnt say how many she buys at the coin show so we dont know but its going to be more than 6
