Answer:

x = 6

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

If A, B and C are collineal points, they all pass through a common line.

<--------------14-------------->

A-----------B----------------C

<-----x-----><------x+2---->

Based on the problem and the diagram above,

(x) + (x+2) = 14

(2x+2) = 14

(2x) = 12

(x) = 6

Which graph shows the solution to the following inequality? 4d- 6 < 18 PLEASE HELP

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

answer a

Step-by-step explanation:

$4d-6$ < $18$

Let's isolate $d$ on one side of the equation. Ignore the inequality for now. We'll deal with that later.

$4d-6=18\\4d-6+6=18+6\\4d=24\\\frac{4d}{4}=\frac{24}{4}\\ d=6$

Now, I'm going to bring back the inequality or < symbol. I only removed it when simplifying and isolating $d$ , but if this confuses you, just do your math and keep the inequality there.

$d$ < $6$

On a number line, this would include every number less than $6$ , due to the < (less than) symbol. This disqualifies answers b and d because they are showing every number greater than $6$ . But, how do we decide between answers a and c?
If a line has point at its beginning, $6$ , then that means that every number less than or equal to [ ≤ ] 6 is being shown, but our equation just says less than [ < ] 6, so answer a is our correct answer.
