Answer:

Given the inequality: $5x < 16 +x$

Subtraction property of equality states that you subtract the same number to both sides of an equation.

subtract x from both sides we get;

$5x -x < 16 + x -x$

Simplify:

$4x < 16$

Divide both sides by 4 we get;

$x < 4$

Therefore, the solution set for the given inequality is, $(-\infty, 4)$

The perimeter of a regulation singles tennis court is 210 feet and the length is 57 feet less than five times the width.

Marianna [84]

Answer:

Length = 24 and Width = 81

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Width be W

then Length = W-57

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length + Width)

=2 (W-57+W)= 210

4W- 114= 210

4W= 324

W= 81

Then Length = 81-57 = 24

How do you use graphs toslove a system of two linear equation

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

A system of linear equations is a system made up of two linear equations. To solve the system of equations, you need to find the exact values of x and y that will solve both equations. One good way to do this is to graph each line and see where they intersect.

Answer:

The answer is: C. 3my^4 - 3my^2x

Step-by-step explanation:

For the problem:

3my^2 (y^2x - x) =

Multiply each term by 3my^2:

3my^2 * y^2x - 3my^2 *x =

3my^4x - 3my^2x

The sides of a regular 9-sided polygon have been

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

x = 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

As the given shape is a regular polygon, the triangles created by extending the sides are isosceles triangles.

To calculate the base angles of the isosceles triangle, find the interior angle of the regular polygon:

$\textsf{Interior angle of a regular polygon} = \dfrac{180^{\circ}(n-2)}{n}$

$\textsf{(where }n \textsf{ is the number of sides)}$

Therefore:

$\textsf{Interior angle of a regular nonagon} = \dfrac{180^{\circ}(9-2)}{9}=140^{\circ}$

As angles on a straight line sum to 180°, the base angle of the isosceles triangle is:

= 180° - interior angle

= 180° - 140°

= 40°

Interior angles of a triangle sum to 180°.

⇒ 2 base angles + x = 180°

⇒ 2 × 40° + x = 180°

⇒ 80° + x = 180°

⇒ x = 180° - 80°

⇒ x = 100°
