Solve the inequality: 16 < -2(x + 4)

Mathematics

Answer:

x < -12

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Distributive Property

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

16 < -2(x + 4)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute -2:                          16 < -2x - 8
  2. Add 8 to both sides:             24 < -2x
  3. Divide -2 on both sides:       -12 > x
  4. Rewrite:                                 x < -12

Here we see that any number <em>x</em> smaller than -12 would work as a solution to the inequality.

Find the quotient and reduce to lowest terms: ((x²-4)/(3x)) ÷ ((x-2)/(2x)).
DENIUS [597]

Answer:   2/3 * (× + 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

((x²-4)/(3x)) ÷ ((x-2)/(2x)).          ⇒   [ ( ײ - 4 ) * 2x ] ÷ [ ( × - 2 ) *3x ]

Simplifying by x   [ 2 * ( ײ - 4 ) ] ÷ [ ( × - 2 ) *3 ] ⇒ (2/3)*{ [ ( x-2 )*(×+2)]÷ (×-2) }

Simplifying by ( ×+2)     2/3 * (× + 2 )

Given f(x) =3x-7, find f(x+1)+f(1)
ELEN [110]

Answer:

3x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find f(x + 1) substitute x = x + 1 into f(x)

f(x + 1) = 3(x + 1) - 7 = 3x + 3 - 7 = 3x - 4

Similarly

f(1) = 3(1) - 7 = 3 - 7 = - 4

Hence

f(x + 1) + f(1) = 3x - 4 - 4 = 3x - 8
