Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 1 = 5x
Bringing like terms on one side
1 = 5x - 3x
1 = 2x
1/2 = x
Step-by-step explanation:
1) -5x<35
we divide both sides by 5
-5x/5<35/5
-x<7
we divide both sides by-1 to remove the negative sign
-x/-1<7/-1
x<7/-1
2) 2x>-42
we divide both sides by 2
2x/2>-42/2
x>-21
3) x/3≤-7
we multiply by 3 and we cancel 3
3(x/3)≤3(-7) we cancel the 3
x≤-21
4) x/-4≥-4
we do the same thing
x≥1
The option C) y = 15/x
a) y = 15 x is an example of direct variation, with proportionality constant = 15
b) is an example of linear variation (it is the equation of a straight line that does not pass through the origin)
c) y = 15/x => y*x = 15 = constant which is the characteristic of an inverse relation
d) y = x/15 is an example of an inverse relation, with proportion constant = 1/15
