Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 9y = 23
5x - 3y = -12x - 9y = 23
5x - 3y = -1
Answer:
x < 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Writing this entirely with symbols, we get:
-5(x - 1) > -40
We must solve for x.
Carrying out the multiplication, we get:
-5x + 5 > -40, or
-5x > -45
Dividing both sides by -5 isolates x:
x < 9
Note that when working with an inequality such as this one, dividing both sides by a negative number requires changing the direction of the inequality symbol.
Only A
And only when x = 1
Nothing else works.
