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

7 - 2x - x4
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

b)  three terms

c)  -1

d)  7

e) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

put the expression in decreasing exponent order with the constant at the end

-x⁴ - 2x + 7

With this format it is easy to find the leading coefficient which is the coefficient of the term with the highest exponent; in this case you only see a negative sign but every variable, if no other coefficient is present, has an invisible '1'

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

(a)6 feet

(b)24 sections

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)We are required to find the length of the Giant Sub.

If each section is 1/3 of a foot long and there are 18 equal parts.

Length of the Giant Sub =

Length per Section X Number of Sections

= 1/3 X 18 = 6 feet

(b)If each section is 1/4 of a feet long

Length of the Giant Sub =

Length per Section X Number of Sections

6= 1/4 X Number of Sections

Number of Sections =6 X 4 =24 sections
