-2x + 5 < 7
-2x + 5 < 7
<u> -5 -5 </u> deduct 5 from both sides
-2x < 2
<u>÷ -2 ÷ -2 </u> divide both sides by negative 2. Because of the division
x > -1 using a negative number, the sign is then reversed.
from < it becomes >.
The value of x should be greater than -1. It can be 0, 1, 2, so on...
To check: Revert back to the original sign which is <.
x = 1
-2x + 5 < 7
-2(1) + 5 < 7
-2 + 5 < 7
3 < 7
Using proportions, it is found that Ermias is traveling at a rate of 11 mph and Jeremiah at a rate of 19 mph.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
Jeremiah travels 8 mph faster than Ermias, hence their velocities are:
x, x + 8
They travel in opposite directions, hence in one hour they are 2x + 8 apart.
In eight hours, the distance is 8(2x + 8), which is of 240 miles, hence:
8(2x +8) = 240
2x + 8 = 30
2x = 22
x = 11.
Then:
- x = 11 + 8 = 19 -> Jeremiah.

Answer:
Since the triangles are congruent, AB=ED so AB=14
Angles F is congruent to angle C so F=39 degrees

The equation of the function is y = 4x + 5. Find the value of y when
x = 3
x = -2
<h2><u>A</u><u>n</u><u>s</u><u>w</u><u>e</u><u>r</u>:-</h2>
<h3>Given:-</h3>
y = 4x + 5 [Equation]
<h3>To Find:-</h3>
The value of y when x = 3 , x = -2
<h2>Solution:-</h2>
y = 4x + 5 [Given equation]
When x = 3 ,
y = 4 × 3 + 5 [Value of x is 3]
y = 12 + 5
<h3>y = 17 [Answer]</h3>
Again, when x = -2 ,
y = 4 × (-2) + 5 [Value of x is -2]
y = -8 + 5
<h3>y = -3 [Answer]</h3>
Answer:
405
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
3 infected x infected
------------------ = ----------------
50 sampled 6750 population
Using cross products
3*6750 = 50x
Divide each side by 50
3*6750/50 = x
405
