27 because you have to divide 54 pencils by two people
The solutions to the inequalities are x >1 and x < 6
<h3>How to solve the inequalities?</h3>
The inequality expression is given as:
-2x + 5 < 3x + 10
Collect the like terms in the above inequality
-2x - 3x < 10 - 5
Evaluate the like terms
-5x < 5
Divide by -5
x >1
Also, we have
5(x - 2) <3x + 2
Open the bracket
5x - 10 < 3x + 2
Evaluate the like terms
2x < 12
Divide by 2
x < 6
Hence, the solutions to the inequalities are x >1 and x < 6

Answer:
20 is my answer and the question is somehow confusing
Because x1 = x2 = -8 the line is vertical.
The slope of a vertical line is undefined.
(-2x -1) - (x - 7)
distribute the negative through the second set of parenthesis
-2x - 1 - x + 7
- 3x + 6
