Let

x-------> the number

we know that

The expression " Two-fifths of one less than a number is less than three-fifths of one more than that number" represent the equation

\frac{2}{5}(x-1) < \frac{3}{5}(x+1)

Multiply by 5 both sides

2(x-1) < 3(x+1)

2x-2 < 3x+3

-3-2< 3x-2x

-5 < x --------> x >-5

The solution set is the interval -------> (-5,∞)   the number -5 is not included

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The solution set is the interval (-5,∞)

Algebra 2 question need help.​
MrMuchimi

Answer: Choice C

h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5

===========================================

Explanation:

When reflecting the function f(x) over the y axis, we replace every x with -x and simplify like so

f(x) = -x^4 - 2x^3 + 3x^2 - 4x + 5

f(-x) = -(-x)^4 - 2(-x)^3 + 3(-x)^2 - 4(-x) + 5

f(-x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5

h(x) = -x^4 + 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 4x + 5

Note the sign changes that occur for the terms that have odd exponents (the terms -2x^3 and -4x become +2x^3 and +4x); while the even exponent terms keep the same sign.

The reason why we replace every x with -x is because of the examples mentioned below

-----------

Examples:

The point (1,2) moves to (-1,2) after a y axis reflection

Similarly, (-5,7) moves to (5,7) after a y axis reflection.

As you can see, the y coordinate stays the same but the x coordinate flips in sign from negative to positive or vice versa. This is the direct reason for the replacement of every x with -x.
