Step-by-step explanation:
-x/3 < -4
-x < -12
x > 12
5x +11 ≤ -4
5x ≤ -4-11
5x ≤ -15
x ≤ -3
therefore, the solution is
x ≤ -3 or x > 12
Use proportions for all of them, for #1 use the proportion 12/30 = 9/a based on corresponding sides and then cross multiply. a=22.5 For #2 use the proportion y/35 = 64/40 based on corresponding sides and then cross multiply, y=56 For #3 use the proportion 42/? = 54/36 and then cross multiply, ?=28
<span>Example: x − 2 = 4</span>
When we put 6 in place of x we get:
6 − 2 = 4
which is true
So x = 6 is a solution.
