Can someone solve this inequality for x (x–2)a ≤ x+1 if a>1

Mathematics

fiasKO [112]3 years ago

Answer:

x ≤ (1+2a) / (a-1)  where a > 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x–2)a ≤ x+1

x(a) -2(a) ≤ x + 1

ax -2a ≤ x + 1   (subtract x from both sides)

ax -2a - x  ≤  1 (add 2a to both sides)

ax - x  ≤  1 + 2a  (factor out x from left side)

x (a - 1) ≤ 1 + 2a

x ≤ (1+2a) / (a-1)  where a > 1

Need help with equations with variables on both sides, giving 100 points, tysm if you help :) 6 (2x-4) = 8(x +2) A. 3 B. 10 C. 2
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B. 10

C. All real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 (2x-4) = 8(x + 2)

Distribute the numbers outside of the factors:

12x - 24 = 8x + 16

Subtract both sides by '8x'

12x - 8x - 24 = 8x - 8x + 16

4x - 24 = 16

Add '24' to both sides:

4x = 40

Divide both sides by 4:

x = 10. Therefore, <u>B. 10</u> is the correct answer.

3(4p - 2) = -6(1 - 2p)

Distribute the numbers similarly to the example before:

12p - 6 = -6 + 12p

Subtract '12p' from both sides:

12p - 12p -6 = -6 + 12p - 12p

0 -6 = -6

Add '6' to both sides:

0 - 6 + 6 = -6 + 6

0 = 0

Therefore, the solution consists of <u>all real numbers.</u>

number between 1 and 10, inclusive, is randomly chosen. Events A and B are defined as follows. A: {The number is even} B: {The n
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A U B = {1,2,3,4,5,6,8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the sets.

Let ¢ = universal set ( Contains all the elements in the set)

¢ = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 , 10}

A= {2, 4, 6, 8}

B= {1,2,3,4,5,6}

Therefore: A U B (A union B):

A U B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8}
