Answer:
x is less than or equal to 0
Step-by-step explanation:
- you need to multiply both sides of the inequality by 5/2
- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 5
- then you reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2
- any expression multiplied by 0 equals 0
- so you get x is less than or equal to 0

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say there's a number 'x' and there's an expression 
where 'a' & 'b' are also numbers , <u>the simplified form of the expression is </u>
<u>.</u>
So ,
surface area (S) of a right rectangular solid is:
S = 2*L*W + 2*L*H + 2*W*H (equation 1)
where:
L = length
W = width
H = height
-----
you have:
L = 7
W = a
H = 4
-----
formula becomes:
S = 2*7*a + 2*7*4 + 2*a*4
simplify:
S = 14*a + 56 + 8*a
combine like terms:
S = 22*a + 56
-----
answer is:
S = 22*a + 56 (equation 2)
-----
to prove, substitute any value for a in equation 2:
let a = 15
S = 22*a + 56 (equation 2)
S = 22*15 + 56
S = 330 + 56
S = 386
-----
since a = 15, then W = 15 because W = a
go back to equation 1 and substitute 15 for W:
S = 2*L*W + 2*L*H + 2*W*H (equation 1)
where:
L = length
W = width
H = height
-----
you have:
L = 7
W = 15
H = 4
-----
equation 1 becomes:
S = 2*7*15 + 2*7*4 + 2*15*4
perform indicated operations:
S = 210 + 56 + 120
S = 386
-----
surface area is the same using both equations so:
equations are good.
formula for surface area of right rectangle in terms of a is:
S = 22*a + 56
