Answer: x < 2
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
2x + 1 < 5
Subtract 1 from both sides:
2x < 4
Divide both sides by 2:
x < 2 <em>(x is less than 2)</em>

Answer:
1701 and 2667 and 376 and 5472
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation 1 is
,
Equation 2 is [/tex] 3x-2y = -1 [/tex]
for first equation LCD= 3 *5 = 15 , So we multiply whole equation by 15


Now multiply second equation by -3 , to make the coefficient of y equal and opposite , so that we can apply the elimination method

Add both the equations


Divide both sides by 11

Plug in any one of the equation we get
3(3) -2y = -1
9 - 2y = -1
subtract 9 from both sides
-2y = -10
divide both sides by -2
y=5
So the solution is x= 3 , y= 5
Which means
a. The system is consistent and independent. TRUE
