The general approach to solving any such inequality is to get the variable by itself on one side of the relationship symbol. The instructions for this can vary, but here is a set of instructions that will always work.

1. Subtract the expression on the right side of the relationship symbol.

... 7x + 1 < 4(x - 2) . . . . starting inequality

... 7x +1 - 4(x -2) < 0 . . . after step 1

2. Eliminate parentheses and collect terms.

... 7x +1 -4x +8 < 0

... 3x +9 < 0 . . . . . . . . . after step 2

3. Divide by the coefficient of the variable. Here, divide by 3. If the coefficient of the variable is negative, also reverse the relationship symbol (≥ becomes ≤, for example).

... x + 3 < 0 . . . . . . . . . we divided by 3

4. Add the opposite of the constant, if any.

... x < -3 . . . . . . . . . . . . after adding -3

This solution matches your 4th selection:

... {x | x < -3}

Help plzz i will give you brianliest Which best describes the graph of the function f(x) = 3(1.8)^x A) The graph passes through
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with why C isn't the answer.

y = 1.8^0 . The power is zero. Anything to the zero power (anything except 0 to the 0 power) is 1. So 1.8^0 is 1 not something else. C assumes that somehow 0,1.8 turns into 1.8. It does not. The second part is also wrong but you don't need it. However here it is.

x = 0        y = 3

x = 1         y = 3 * 1.8 = 5.4

x = 2        y = 3 * 1.8^2 = 3*3.24 = 9.72

You should be able to see that if you multiply 5.4 by 3, you don't get 9.72

C just does not work.

=======

The actual answer is A. That's exactly what the graph does. If you multiply 5.4 * 1.8 you should get 9.72. Just for completeness, I've included the graph.
