0.7(5x+15)=2.9 -(x+3)
3.5x+10.5=2.9-x-3
3.5x+10.5= -0.1- x
4.5x= -10.6
x= -2.3555...
Check:
0.7(5(-2.3555...) +15) = 2.9 -(x+3)
2.2555... = 2.2555...
It's a simple linear equation in 'y'. There is only one number that 'y' can be
that will make the equation a true statement. That number is called the
'solution' to the equation. Here's one way to find it:
You said that <u> 2 = y/5 - 8</u>
Add 8 to each side: 10 = y/5
Multiply each side by 5: <em> 50 = y</em>
Positive 40 is the correct answer
Ummm not to freak you out but what’s that in the background?
<em><u>The inequality can be used to find the interval of time taken by the object to reach the height greater than 300 feet above the ground is:</u></em>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>The object falls, its distance, d, above the ground after t seconds, is given by the formula:</u></em>

To find the time interval in which the object is at a height greater than 300 ft
Frame a inequality,

Solve the inequality
Subtract 1000 from both sides


Time cannot be negative
Therefore,
t < 6.61
And the inequality used is:
