Solve for x: 5x > -20

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is x > -4

To get this answer, you divide both sides by 5. This is to undo the multiplication that happens to the 'x' in '5x'. Note that 5x means 5*x or 5 times x, where x is just a placeholder for some unknown number.

Saying x > -4 means you can pick any number larger than -4.

Answer:

w = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by

P = 2(l+w)

28 = 2(2w-1 + w)

Combine like terms

28 =2(3w-1)

Divide each side by 2

28/2 = 2/2(3w-1)

14 = 3w-1

Add 1 to each side

14+1 = 3w-1+1

15 = 3w

Divide each side by 3

15/3 =3w/3

5 =w
