- 3 (4 - 6x) < x + 5

- 12 + 18x < x + 5                 distributive property (to solve the left side)

-12 + 17x < 5                        subtraction property of equality (to transpose x
                                             from right to left side)

                                              subtraction of like terms (18x - x = 17x)

17x < 17                                addition property of equality (to tranpose - 12
                                              from left to right side)

                                              addition of like terms (12 + 5 =17)

x < 1                                  division property of equality

(1/2a - 2/3b) ( 3/5a + 2/3b) multiply the following

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$(\dfrac{1}{2}a-\dfrac{2}{3}b)(\dfrac{3}{5}a+\dfrac{2}{3}b)=\dfrac{1}{2}a*(\dfrac{3}{5}a+\dfrac{2}{3}b) - \dfrac{2}{3}b*(\dfrac{3}{5}a+\dfrac{2}{3}b) \\\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2}a*\dfrac{3}{5}a + (\dfrac{1}{2}a*\dfrac{2}{3}b) - \dfrac{2}{3}b*\dfrac{3}{5}a- \dfrac{2}{3}b*\dfrac{2}{3}b\\\\\\=\dfrac{3}{10}a^{2} + \dfrac{1}{3}ab - \dfrac{2}{5}ab -\dfrac{4}{9}b^{2}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{10}a^{2} +\dfrac{1*5}{3*5}ab-\dfrac{2*3}{5*3}-\dfrac{4}{9}b^{2}\\\\\\$

$=\dfrac{3}{10}a^{2}+\dfrac{5}{15}ab-\dfrac{6}{15}ab -\dfrac{4}{9}b^{2}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{10}a^{2}-\dfrac{1}{15}-\dfrac{4}{9}b^{2}$

Two distinct planes __________ intersect in a pair of lines

hammer [34]

If the planes are parallel to one another then they will never intersect (assuming they are distinct planes as the question states).

Otherwise they will intersect along a single line.

Therefore the answer is NEVER - they can never intersect in a pair of lines.

How do I find the answer to number 8?

Sonbull [250]

Multiply both sides of the equation by (x+1), on the right hand side the denominator then goes away and on the left hand side you get (x+1)(x+1), foil that out then just solve for x
