Answer:

6/5 < x < 10/3 is the desired solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given compound inequality is :

x + 1 < -2 x + 11 < 3 x + 5

Now, consider the first two term of the inequality, we get:

x + 1 < -2 x + 11

Subtracting 1 from both sides, we get:

x + 1  - 1 < -2 x + 11  - 1

or, x < -2x + 10

or, x + 2x < 10

or, 3 x < 10

or, x <  10/3

Similarly, considering the last two terms of the given inequality, we get:

-2 x + 11 < 3 x + 5

Subtracting 11 from both sides, we get:

-2 x + 11  - 11 < 3 x + 5 - 11

or, - 2 x < 3 x-6

or, 6 < 5 x

or, x > 6/5

Hence, combining two solutions, we get:    6/5 < x < 10/3

So, the desired value of x should be more than (6/5) but less than (10/3)

Sophie [7]

Number of ounces left is 1120

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find number of ounces left after each day.

Given total soup prepared each day = 15 gallons

Amount served each day = 1/4 of 15 = 15/4 gallons

Amount left after each day = 15 - 15/4 = 60 - 15/4 = 35/4 gallons

  • Step 2: Convert gallons into ounces. 1 gallon = 128 ounces

35/4 gallons = 35/4 × 128 = 1120 ounces
