Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 8 = -14
Add 8 to both sides of the equation
x - 8 + 8 = -14 + 8
x = -6
Imagine now that you put your hand in the refrigerator and pull out a piece of fruit.
A) 1/2
Because this scale factor is smaller than 1, which means it’s making it smaller than the original.
x is less than or equal to -4 or x is greater than or equal to 5
x <= -4 or x>= 5
There is no intersection of both inequalities when we graph it in number line So, we write the interval notation separately for each inequality
for x<=-4 , x starts at -4 and goes to -infinity because we have less than symbol. Also we have = sign so we use square brackets
Interval notation is (-∞ , -4]
for x>= 5 , x starts at 5 and goes to infinity because we have greater than symbol. Also we have = sign so we use square bracket at 5
Interval notation is [5 , ∞)
Now combine both notation by a 'U' symbol Union
(-∞ , -4] U [5 , ∞)
