3x + 5 > 11
3x + (5 - 5) > 11 - 5
3x > 6
3x / 3 > 6 / 3
x > 2
x - 3 < 1
x (-3 + 3) < 1 + 3
x < 4
When subtracting / adding values to both sides, the inequality does not change.
When multiplying / dividing by a positive value, the inequality also doesn't change, but when multiplying , dividing with a negative value, the inequality must be flipped.
Answer:
The numbers are 9, 19 and 76.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's take the second number and make it a variable, like x. Now let's find all the other numbers in terms of x.
The first number in terms of x:
The second number in terms of x:
If we add them all up, these 3 numbers in terms of x must be equal to 104, so:
Now that we know the second number, we can find the other numbers since we already figured out their values in terms of x:
The first number is 9, second number 19 and the third number 76.
Answer:
Let the speed of the train be x km/h.
Case 1:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = x km/h
Time = Distance/Speed
= 288/x h
Case 2:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = (x+4) km/h
Time = 288/x + 4 h
Since 288/x > 288/x + 4
288/x - 288/x+4 = 1
288[1/x - 1/x+4 ] = 1
[ x + 4 - x / x(x + 4) ] = 1/288
[4 / x^2 + 4x ] = 1/288
x^2 + 4x = 1152
x^2 + 4x - 1152 = 0
x^2 + 36x - 32x - 1152 = 0
x(x + 36) - 32(x + 36) = 0
(x + 36)(x - 32) = 0
x + 36 = 0 , x - 32 = 0
x = -36 , x = 32
x = -36 , rejected since speed cannot be negative.
Therefore , speed of the train = 32 km/h
Answer:
c) 2x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's x be number of Nick's goals.
Emma has scored 1 more than twice the number of Nicks.
1 more is +1, of twices the number is 2x.
so 2x+1=15
