Solve for x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mamont248 [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A. x < -3 or x > -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start with the equation -4x + 60 < 72.

-4x + 60 < 72

First using the order of operations, subtract 60 from both sides.

-4x + 60 - 60 < 72 - 60

- 4x < 12

Next we want to divide -4 from both sides to isolate the variable.

-4x/-4 < 12/-4

x > -3

When you divide a negative number, always make sure the change the sign.

Solve the next equation, 14x + 11 < -31, the same way we solved the last.

14x + 11 < -31

Subtract 11 from both sides.

14x + 11 - 11 < -31 -11

14x < -42

Divide 14 from both sides.

14x/14 < -42/14

x < -3

The equations have different signs.

A. x < -3 or x > -3

7x-2y=16 11x+6y=32.3<br>how to solve this math problem​
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These types of equations are called simultaneous equations and the method we can use to solve these type of equations is either Substitution, Elimination and Graphing.

We use substitution here because it is easier.

Equation 1

7x-2y=16

Equation 2

11x+6y=32.3

Lets take equation 1

7x-2y=16\\7x=16+2y\\x=\frac{16+2y}{7}

This is our equation 3 , now put it inside equation 2.

11x+6y=32.3\\11(\frac{16+2y}{7} )+6y=32.3\\\frac{176+22y}{7} +6y=32.3\\\frac{176+22y+42y}{7}=32.3\\176+22y+42y=226.1 \\\\42y+22y=226.1-176\\64y=50.1\\y=\frac{50.1}{64} \\y=0.783\\

We found the value of y , now to find the value of x insert the value of y in equation 3

x=\frac{16+2y}{7}\\x=\frac{16+2(0.783)}{7} \\x=\frac{16+1.566}{7}\\x=\frac{17.566}{7}\\x=2.509

Solved ! See the attached image on both the straight line graphs i have attached for better understanding. Where both the lines intersect each other is our value of (x , y) respectively.

Given the two expressions below: 1) 4x2 − 8x + 9 2) 3x2 + 2y + 6 Is the sum of the two expressions above a polynomial? Why or wh
Mkey [24]
Sum of polynomials are always polynomials.

Note that despite it's name, single constants, monomials, binomials, trinomials, and expressions with more than three terms are all polynomials.
For example,
0, &pi; sqrt(2)x, 4x+2, x^2+3x+4, x^2-x^2, x^5+x/ &pi; -1
are all polynomials.

What makes an expression NOT a polynomial?
Expressions that contain non-integer or negative powers of variables, rational functions, infinite series.
For example,
sqrt(x+1), 1/x+4, 1+x+ x^2/2!+x^3/3!+x^4/4!+...., (5x+3)/(6x+7)
are NOT polynomials.
