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 .

Help asap please.. Brainliest to correct!
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  x + 6 I x³ + 2x²  - 10x + 84   I   x² - 4x + 14

              x³ + 6x²

            <u> -     -       </u>

                     -4x² - 10x

                    -4x²  - 24x

                    <u> +       +     </u>

                               14x + 84

                                14x + 84

                               <u> -      -       </u>

                                     0

P(x)  =(x +6)* ( x² - 4x + 14) + 0
