Answer:
<h2>x > -5</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x + 7) < -10 <em>use the distributive property </em><em>a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>
(-5)(x) + (-5)(7) < -10
-5x - 35 < -10 <em>add 35 to both sides</em>
-5x < 25 <em>change the signs</em>
5x > - 25 <em>divide both sides by 5</em>
x > -5

Answer: 304.8 milimeter
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = -
, x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(4x - 5)² = 49 ( take the square root of both sides )
4x - 5 = ±
= ± 7 ( add 5 to both sides )
4x = 5 ± 7, thus
4x = 5 - 7 = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x =
= - 
or
4x = 5 + 7 = 12 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 3
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
x = - 
left side = (- 2 - 5)² = (- 7)² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution
x = 3
left side = (12 - 5)² = 7² = 49 = right side ⇒ solution
