Betty has some hair ribbons that are blue. She has 19 blue ribbons. Three times the number of blue ribbons decreased by 5 is gre

likoan [24]

Answer:

3x-5> 6x- 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the blue ribbons be denoted by the letter x.

Then according to the given condition

3 times the blue ribbons = 3x

Decreased by 5 = 3x-5

is greater than

6 times the blue ribbons = 6x

decreased by 14 = 6x-14

Putting in one line

3x-5> 6x- 14

Solving the inequality

3x-5> 6x- 14

Taking both sides positive as in modulus

14-5 > 6x-3x

9> 3x

9/3 > x

3> x

Again solving for inequality

3x-5> 6x- 14

Taking one side negative that is mod

3x-5> -6x + 14

3x+ 6x > 14+5

9x> 19

x > 19/9

x > 2.11

so x lies between 2 and 3

3 > x > 2.11

Now putting the values for x= 19

3x-5> 6x- 14

57-5> 114-14

52 > 100 False

Now putting the values for x= 3

3x-5> 6x- 14

9-5> 18-14

4>4 False

Now putting the values for x= 2

3x-5> 6x- 14

6-5> 12-14

1> -2 True

There are 2 blue ribbons
