Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
62 = 2x+2
62-2 = 60
60/2 = 30
This seems to look like a factoring question. When factoring, one must know that the second number is the sum of the two values multiplied by x, and the third number is what happens when one multiplies those two numbers. Using these definitions, one can conclude that the correct answer is (x-8)(x+3)
Answer: D) No; If x is 5, the expression on the left simplifies to 8, making the inequality false.
In other words, if x = 5, then x+3 becomes 5+3 which ultimately becomes 8, but this is not greater than 8 on the right side.
Your steps could look like this
x+3 > 8
5+3 > 8 ... replace x with 5
8 > 8 ... this is a false inequality
