<h2>Answer:</h2>

The solution of the inequality is:

$x\leq 3$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We are given a inequality in terms of variable x as:

$2(4+2x)\geq 5x+5$

Now we are asked to find the solution of the inequality i.e. we are asked to find the possible values of x such that the inequality holds true.

We may simplify this inequality as follows:

On using the distributive property of multiplication in the left hand side of the inequality we have:

$2\times 4+2\times 2x\geq 5x+5\\\\i.e.\\\\8+4x\geq 5x+5\\\\i.e.\\\\8-5\geq 5x-4x\\\\i.e.\\\\x\leq 3$

The solution is: $x\leq 3$

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is given as

2(4 + 2x) ≥ 5x + 5

8 + 4x ≥ 5x + 5 [Simplify the parenthesis by distributive law]

Subtract 5 from each side of the inequality

(8 + 4x) - 5 ≥ (5x + 5) - 5

3 + 4x ≥ 5x

subtract 4x from each side of the inequality

(4x + 3) - 4x ≥ 5x - 4x

3 ≥ x

Or x ≤ 3

Option C. x ≤ 3 is the correct option.

Answer:

z = 55.15432893

x = 59.61543424

y = 22.5166605

Step-by-step explanation:

To find length "z" you will have to use SOHCAHTOA.

Labelling the triangle will show us that the side marked "z" is the hyp and the side marked 39 is the opp.

sin 45 = $\frac{39}{z}$

z sin 45 = 39

z = $\frac{39}{sin45}$

z = 55.15432893

Using Pythagoras' theorem, you can find that the adj = 39

In the other triangles POV, the adj is actually the opp.

Therefore, use tangent to find y.

tan 60 = $\frac{39}{adj}$

y tan 60 = 39

y = $\frac{39}{tan60}$

y = 22.5166605

Use Pythagoras's Theorem to find x.

$23^{2} + 55^{2} = x^{2}\\\sqrt{23^{2} + 55^{2}} = x\\59.61543424=x$

3/8x - 1 = 5/8 solve for x

Blababa [14]

Answer: x = 13/3 or x = 4.33333....

Solution: ⅜x -1 +1 = ⅝ + 1

Simplify: ⅜x = 13/8

Multiply both sides by eight: 8 x ⅜x = 133 x 8 divided by 8

Simplify: 3x = 13

Divide both sides by three: 3x/3 = 13/3

Simplify: x = 13/3

The rate at which a duck gains weight is proportional to the difference between its adult weight and its current weight. At time

kogti [31]

DB/dt = 1/5(100 - B)
5/(100 - B) dB = dt
-5 ln (100 - B) = t + C
Since B(0) = 20, then
-5 ln (100 - 20) = C
i.e. C = -5 ln 80

Thus -5 ln (100 - B) = t - 5 ln 80
or t = 5 ln 80 - 5 ln (100 - B) = 5 ln (80 / (100 - B))

When the weight = 40 grams
t = 5 In (80 / 100 - 40) = 5 In (80 / 60) = 5 ln (4/3) = 1.438 days
Rate of weight gain = 40 / 1.438 = 27.8 grams per day

When the weight = 70 grams
t = 5 ln (80 / 100 - 70) = 5 ln (80 / 30) = 5 ln (8/3) = 4.9 days
Rate of weight gain = 70/4.9 = 14.27 grams per day.

Therefore, the duck gains weight faster when it weighs 40 grams.
