Answer:
- 5 < x
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we need to isolate the variable: x
5x - 7 < 8x + 8
Subtract 5x from both sides
5x - 5x -7 < 8x -5x + 8
- 7 < 3x + 8
Subtract 8 from both sides
- 7 -8 < 3x + 8 -8
-15< 3x
Divide both sides by 3
- 15/3< 3x/3
- 5 < x
Answer:
Hello, hope this will help:)
Ratios of Area of the two squares = 25:9
So then let the areas be A1 = 25A and A2 = 9A, A is common element
Side of the smaller area S2 = 30 meters
Area of the smaller square A2 = 30 x 30 = 900
We have area of smaller square as 9A = 900 => A = 100
Area of the large square = 25A = 25 x 100 = 2500.
Hence S1^2 = 2500 => S1 = 50 meters which is 20 meters longer than the
side of the smaller square.
