5x-8< -18
+8 on both sides
5x< -10
X< -2
Given,
9(x+1) = 25 + x
expanding,
9x + 1 = 25 + x
bringing x to left hand side and taking 1 to right hand side with change in their respective signs,
9x - x = 25-1
=> 8x = 24
transposing 8 ,
=> x = 24/8 = 3
Hence x = 3
The distance between the Earth's surface and the upper edge of the Earth's atmosphere would be Q - V.
The distance from the Sun to the Earth is Q. The distance from the Sun to the upper edge of the atmosphere is V. If you subtract V from Q, the remaining distance is that of the Earth's atmosphere. Q - V = the atmosphere
12a−a
=12a−1a
=12a+−1a
=a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+−a
=a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a+a
=11a
