Answer:
x < -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there,
To isolate the variable x, you do the same steps like solving a regular equation.
x + 5 < -4 ← subtract 5 from both sides to make x by itself
x < -9 ← final answer (already in simplest form)
Hope this explanation helps. Cheers.
The slope of the current line is -2/7. To find the slope of the line perpendicular to it, find the negative reciprocal of the slope. So it would be 7/2. The y intercept or the b would remain the same so the equation would be y=7/2x+8. Hope this helps.

Answer: £66</h3>
Your teacher may want you to leave off the pounds sign.
==========================================================
Explanation:
x = amount Bill gets
3x = amount Sam gets, because he gets three times as much
x+3x = 4x = total amount of money
4x = 88
x = 88/4
x = 22
Bill gets £22
3x = 3*22 = 66
Sam gets £66
Note that 22+66 = 88 to help confirm the answer.
