Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
(you do the exact same you'd do in an equation problem. Get x by itself)
3x+1<2x-2<5x+7
1 < -x-2 < 5x+7
3< -x < 5x+9
3 < -6x < 9
-(1/2) > x > -(3/2)
x can't be bigger than -3 halves and be smaller than -1 half, so the answer is no solution
C is your answer. The coefficient on the x value is always a stretch factor.
Answer:
d = 17.5499287748 inches or 17.5 inches to 1 decimal place
Step-by-step explanation:
find the diagonal line passing through the middle of the bottom rectangle:
a² + b² = c²
10² + 8² = c²
100 + 64 = 164
c² = 164
c = √164
c = 12.8062484729
find d:
a² + b² = c²
12² + 12.80624847298² = c²
144+ 164 = 308
c² = 308
c = √308
c = 17.5499287748
therefore d = 17.5499287748 inches or 17.5 inches to 1 decimal place
