Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 8 - 3x = -10
Combine like terms
2x +8 = -10
Subtract 8 from each side
2x+8-8 = -10-8
2x = -18
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = -18/2
x = -9
Answer:
The answer that is <em>not </em>true when x = -4 is <u>B</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x = -4, that means all we have to do to eliminate answers is plug -4 in place of x.
A is incorrect because 2 × -4 = -8, which means that answer IS true and we're looking for the one that isn't true.
Same with C, -4 + -4 + -4 added together gives you -12 = -12, therefore isn't the right choice.
Finally D. -4/4 divided equals -1, so that would make it -1 = -1.
B is the only one that doesn't make sense, therefore you have your answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the regression line to model the linear relationship between x and y ... x and y because the correlation coefficient is not significantly different from zero. ... If r is significant and the scatter plot shows a linear trend, the line can be used to ... If r < negative critical value or r > positive critical value, then r is significant.

Answer: x < 1/2</h3>
This is the same as saying x < 0.5 since 1/2 = 0.5
====================================================
Work Shown:
2(1-x) > 2x
2*1 + 2*(-x) > 2x ..... distribute
2 - 2x > 2x
2 > 2x+2x .... adding 2x to both sides
2 > 4x
4x < 2 ..... flip both sides; flip the inequality sign
x < 2/4 ..... dividing both sides by 4; see note below
x < 1/2
Note: We do not flip the inequality sign here because we are dividing both sides by a positive value. The inequality sign would only flip if you divide both sides by a negative number.
