Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+14<4 or -2(x-8)<-2
-14 -14 -2x+16<-2
5x<-10 -16 -16
÷5 ÷5 -2x<-18
x<-2 ÷-2 ÷-2
x>9 (sign changes because you divide by a negative number)
x<-2 or x>9
Answer: 143 hamburgers and 429 cheese burgers
Explanation:
Call h and c the number of both items.
(h-hamburger and c-cheeseburger)
h + c = 572
c = 3h
Sub the second into the first
h + 3h = 572
4h = 572
Divide both sides by 4
h = 143 hamburgers
Use this back into the second equation
c = 3 • 143 = 429 cheeseburgers
