3(x + 2) > x
3x + 6 > x
3x - 3x + 6 > x - 3x
6 > -2x
6/-2 < -2x/-2
-3< x
(When dividing by a negative, reverse the direction of the inequality side, reverse it EVERY time you divide by a negative)
ANSWER: -3 < x
Answer: The loser's card shows 6.
Explanation: Let's start by naming the first student A and the second student B.
Since the product of A and B are either 12, 15, or 18, let's list every single possibility, the first number being A's number and the second number being B's number.
1 12
1 15
1 18
2 6
2 9
3 4
3 5
3 6
4 3
5 3
6 2
6 3
9 2
12 1
15 1
18 1
Now, the information says that A doesn't know what B has, so we can immediately cross off all of the combinations that have the integer appearing once and once ONLY off, because if it happened once only, A would know of it straight away. Now, our sample space becomes much smaller.
1 12
1 15
1 18
2 6
2 9
3 4
3 5
3 6
6 2
6 3
Using this same logic, we know that we can cross off all of the digits that occur only once in B's column.
2 6
3 6
Now, A definitely knows what number B has because there is only one number left in B. Hence, we can conclude that the loser, B, has the integer 6.

Answer:
D) 2x² + 4x - 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the FOIL method:
FOIL =
First
Outside
Inside
Last
...and is the order you multiply to solve:
(x + 5)(2x - 6) =
(x)(2x) = 2x²
(x)(-6) = -6x
(5)(2x) = 10x
(5)(-6) = -30
Combine like terms. Simplify:
2x² -6x + 10x - 30 = 2x² (-6x + 10x) - 30 = 2x² + 4x - 30
2x² + 4x - 30 is your answer.
