Answer: x≤ -0.5
Step-by-step explanation: Graph the two lines or solve for x:
2x – 6 ≥ 6(x – 2) + 8
2x – 6 ≥ 6x – 12 + 8
2x – 6 ≥ 6x – 4
-4x ≥ 2
x ≤ -1/2 [Inequality is reversed when multiplying or dividing by a negative number]
The number line is anything less than or equal to - 1/2
Or one can plot each side of the inequality and note the interception point (x = -(1/2)).
Answer:
.27
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest terms to check are the first (8x)(2x²) = 16x³ and the last (-5)(-6) = 30. This check eliminates the first choice. The remaining choices differ only in the sign and coefficient of the squared term, so that is the one we need to find.
The squared term will be the sum of the products of factors whose degrees total 2:
(8x)(-5x) + (-5)(2x²) = -40x² -10x² = -50x²
The appropriate choice is
16x³ -50x² -23x +30
