Answer:
- x < 2.5
- x > 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
One way to do this is to try a number for x and see if it makes the inequality true. A suitable number here is x=0. This value of x is less than 2.5.
<h3>1.</h3>
For x=0, you have ...
5 > -5 . . . . . true; the solution space is x < 2.5
__
<h3>2.</h3>
For x=0, you have ...
-25 > -5(2.5)
-25 > -12.5 . . . . . false; the solution space is x > 2.5
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
<h3>1.</h3>
Subtract 5:
-4x > -10
Divide by -4
x < 2.5
__
<h3>2.</h3>
Divide by -5:
5 < x +2.5
Subtract 2.5
2.5 < x
x > 2.5

Answer:
a. Short-Sleeve = 35
b. Long-Sleeve = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Total shirts sold = 62
short sleeved cost = 11 each
Long sleeved cost = 17 each
Total receipts = 844
<em>Let the count of short sleeved be X and Let the count of long sleeved be Y</em>
X + Y = 62 <em>(equation 1) from the total shirts sold</em>
11X + 17Y = 844 <em>(equation 2) from the total receipts</em>
<em>From equation 1</em> X = 62 - Y <em>(Equation 3)</em>
<em>Substituting equation 3 into equation 2</em>
11(62 - Y) +17Y = 844
682 -11Y + 17Y = 844
-11Y + 17Y = 844-682
6Y = 162
Therefore Y = 27
<em>Substituting Y into equation 3</em>
X = 62 - Y
X = 62 - 27
X = 35
