First, before multiplying to cancel the fraction, let's isolate x by subtracting both sides by 3:
b/9 < 1
To cancel out the fraction, we multiply both sides by 9:
x < 9
To solve this question, we just need to insert 12 into the m position of each question and see if the equation holds true.
a. 4m = 40
4(12) = 40
48 = 40
48 obviously does not equal 40, so it is not choice A.
b. m + 20 = 42
12 + 20 = 42
32 = 42
Again, 32 isn't the same as 42, so not choice B either.
c. 4m = 48
4(12) = 48
48 = 48
It looks like this one is true, but let's solve D also just to make sure.
d. m - 4 = 9
12 - 4 = 9
8 = 9
This is false, since 8 does not equal 9.
Therefore, choice C (4m = 48) is the correct answer.
Hope that helped! =)
Answer:
I can't see the picture.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand
simplify x - 5x + 35 to -4x + 35
subtract 35 from both sides
simplify -7 - 35 to -42
divide both sides by -4
two negatives make a positive
simplify 42/4 to 21/2
Answer: x = 21/2.
46+19+54= 119, so the answer is 119
