Answer:
The correct option is:
The student should have switched the direction of the inequality sign to get –5> x for a final answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The students has made a mistake in the 3rd step.
We know that when we multiply or divide any negative number on both sides of the inequality, the sign of inequality reverse its direction.
In step 3 the student divided 25 by -5 but did not switch direction of the inequality sign.
Therefore the correct option is: The student should have switched the direction of the inequality sign to get –5> x for a final answer....

Answer:
1.14 liters
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 8% glycerin solution and we need to make it 16% glycerin solution [more concentration].
When we add "x" liters, we add glycerin as well as changes the total. in 12 Liters, there is 12 * 0.08 = 0.96Liters of glycerin. How much we need to add to this??
Note, 16% = 0.16
We can write a Ratio as shown below, cross multiply and solve for x:
We need to add around 1.14 liters

Answer: 7t + 12(86-t)</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
- t = number of hours she worked as a tutor
- 86-t = number of hours she worked as a waitress
The two expressions mentioned add to 86, to indicate the total number of hours for both jobs combined.
- 7t = amount earned as a tutor
- 12(86-t) = amount earned as a waitress
We multiply the number of hours by the wage per hour to get the amount earned per job.
Lastly, we add those two subtotals to get the grand total earned
7t + 12(86-t)
Optionally you can distribute the 12 through and combine like terms. I'll leave it like this because I think it's more descriptive to show the two amounts earned from each job.
If you wanted to simplify 7t+12(86-t), then you would get 1032-5t or -5t+1032
