Answer:
<em>5 ≤ 4x - 2.5</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Inequalities</u>
The expression "no greater than" can be better expressed as "less or equal than".
The expression 4 times a number, being x the unknown number can be written: 4x
Thus, the equivalent inequality of the sentence is:
5 ≤ 4x - 2.5
Let's solve ~
Here, 6x is present on both the sides of equation so they cancel out ~ therefore there is no one solution satisfying the equation ~
Answer:
2400 in^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Tyler asks for a fish tank for his birthday. The task he wants is a rectangular prism 20 inches long, 10 inches wide, and 12 inches tall. How much water will the fish tank hold?
the capacity of the tank can be determined by calculating the volume of the tank
volume of a prism = length x width x height
20 x 10 x 12 = 2400 in^3
l = 2w + 4
l * w = 48
We can substitute l with its value:
2w + 4 * w = 48
2w^2 + 4w - 48 = 0
2(w^2 + 2w - 24) = 0
2(w+6)(w-4) = 0
w = {4, -6}
