Identify the graphical solution to the inequality
NeTakaya

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve absolute value inequalities you must solve it for when the absolute value is positive and then when it is negative

example, |4| = 4 and -4

first solution will be when we're solving for the positive value:

+(-4x+7) ≥ 27

-4x + 7 ≥ 27

-4x ≥ 20

x ≤ -5   [reverse the symbol when mult or div by a negative]

-(-4x+7) ≥ 27

4x - 7 ≥ 27

4x ≥ 34

x ≥ 34/4 or x ≥ 8 1/2

solution:  x ≤ -5 or x ≥ 8.5

lesantik [10]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=8;\ y=1\to(8;\ 1)}

Step-by-step explanation:

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=x-7&(1)\\5+2y=7&(2)\end{array}\right\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2) and solve for x:}\\\\5+2(x-7)=7\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\5+(2)(x)+(2)(-7)=7\\\\5+2x-14=7\\\\2x+(5-14)=7\\\\2x-9=7\qquad\text{add 9 to both sides}\\\\2x-9+9=7+9\\\\2x=16\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{2x}{2}=\dfrac{16}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=8}

\text{Substitute it to (1):}\\\\y=8-7\\\\\boxed{y=1}

posledela

To solve this problem, all we need is the conversion factor.

We know that there are:

1 liter = 202.884 teaspoons

 

Therefore the mass of Phenobarbital is:

mass = (2 grams / 1 Liter) * (1 teaspoon) * (1 Liter / 202.884 teaspoons)

<span>mass = 0.00986 g = 9.86 x 10^-3 g = 9.86 mg</span>

Viefleur [7K]
Hello!

There are only six was to to role a number less than four. 1 and 1. 1 and 2. 2 and 1. 1 and 3. 2 and 2. 3 and 3 and 1.

The first number on the die could be 1, and the second die could have a probability of rolling the second number on it. Giving us a probability of 1/6.

We can subtract the calculated probability from rolling less than four from 1 to find the probability of rolling more than 5:

1 - 1/6 = 5/6

So, your answer should be D 5/6.
