4x + 6 < 3x - 5 is our given inequality
4x < 3x -11 by subtracting 6 on both sides of the inequality sign
x < -11 by subtracting 3x on both sides.
Thus, x < -11 -- choice D -- is the solution.
Answer:
The equation that can be used to find the width is 2(13 + w) = 42
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(l + w), where l is its length and w is its width
∵ One rectangle has a length of 13 inches
∴ l = 13 inches
∵ Its perimeter is 42 inches
∴ P = 42 inches
- Substitute the values of l and P in the formula of the perimeter
∵ 42 = 2(13 + w)
The equation that can be used to find the width is 2(13 + w) = 42
To find W divide both sides by 2
∴ 21 = 13 + w
- Subtract 13 from both sides
∴ 8 = w
The width of the rectangle is 8 inches
