Answer:

16 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

160+50x=1000

Solve for the x and you'll get 16.8. Now, because you can't have a fraction of a box, and you can't go over the limit, the answer is 16 boxes.

(How to solve for x:

Get x by itself by subtracting 160 to both sides.

50x=1000-160

50x=840

Divide both sides by 50.

x=16.8)

Question 4: *<br> What are the solutions to the equation 4x2 – 52x + 169 = 121?
Rasek [7]

Answer:

1.0769

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply 4x2 to get 8

move -52x over the equal sign to make it 52x

so we get something like this: 8 + 169 = 121 + 52x

also move 121 over the equal sign to make it -121

Like this: 8 + 169 - 121 = 52x

Now when you simply, you will get 56 = 52x

Divide both sides by 52

Final answer is 1.0769

Solve (2 - x)^2 &lt; 4/25
Semenov [28]

Answer:

8/5 < x< 12/5

Step-by-step explanation:

(2 - x)^2 < 4/25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((2 - x)^2)  <±sqrt( 4/25)

Make two equations

2-x < 2/5    2-x > -2/5

Subtract 2 from each side

2-x-2 < 2/5 -2          2-x-2  > -2/5-2

-x < 2/5 -  10/5             -x > -2/5  - 10/5

-x < -8/5                         -x > -12/5

Multiply by -1, remembering to flip the inequality

x> 8/5                   x < 12/5

8/5 < x< 12/5
