Answer:

is the last one

1 - 2n > 5. The solution set is (-∞, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

e are dealing here with two problems:

First, to determine which mathematical statement represents "One less than twice a number is no less than five".

Second, solve n, that is, the solution set for the numbers that solve the inequality.

First Part: Identifying the inequality

"One less than twice a number" can be written as  , where n is the unknown number.

If it is not less than five, thus it is greater (no less) than five. Then, the symbol here is  " > " (greater).

As a result: "One less than twice a number is no less than five" could be rewritten as "One less than twice a number is greater than five", or:

.

Second Part: Finding the solution set

The solution set for this inequality is as follows:

⇒

Subtract -1 from each member of the inequality:

⇒  ⇒  

Multiply each member of the inequality by  (or divide each member by -2). We have to remember here that when we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number (-n), this inverts the inequality, that is:

The solution set is then , which is any value less than -2 (not including -2, because is < and not ≤), and we have infinite negative numbers with such a characteristic. We can write it mathematically as an interval notation:

Solution set for  is .

If the measure of angle ACB is 65 degrees, find the measure of angle BCD
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

the answer is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

you take 65 and add 90 to it because there is an angle that is 90 and you should get 115 then you take 115 and subtract it from 180. and you will get 25 and 25 is your answer.

hope this helped!

p.s it would be cool if you gave me brainliest.

How can you check that this answer is correct? 5,244 = 6= 874​
nignag [31]

I think you meant 5,244 ÷ 6 = 874.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

We can check if this 5,244 ÷ 6 = 874 is correct by doing it opposite.

Since it 5,244 divide 6 we can do 874 x 6.

  \left[8   7   4] \\

×    [6]

======

+ 5244

=======

5244

Hence, this answer is correct.
