The answer for this problem is 7
-3(2x-3)<3
(-3(2x-3))(-1)<3(-1)
3(2x-3)>-3
(3(2x-3))/3>-3/3
2x-3>-1
2x-3+3>-1+3
2x>2
2x/2>2/2
x>1
Answer:
51 DVDs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of DVDs and CDs sold be x each.
<u>Initial</u>
Number of DVDs= 86
Number of CDs= 52
<u>After selling</u>
Number of DVDs= 86 -x
Number of CDs= 52 -x
Given that there are 3 times as many DVDs than CDs left,
86 -x= 3(52 -x)
<em>Expand:</em>
86 -x= 156 -3x
<em>Bring x terms to 1 side, constant to the other:</em>
3x -x= 156 -86
<em>Simplify:</em>
2x= 70
<em>Divide both sides by 2:</em>
x= 35
Amount of DVDs left
= 86 -x
= 86 -35
= 51
