Does anyone know how to solve |4x+3|-9<5

Mathematics
1 answer:
elixir [45]2 years ago
6 0

Answer in fraction form:   -17/4 < x < 11/4

Answer in decimal form:   -4.25 < x < 2.75

=======================================================

Work Shown:

|4x+3| - 9 < 5

|4x+3| < 5+9 .... adding 9 to both sides

|4x+3| < 14

-14 < 4x+3 <  14 .... see note at the bottom

-14-3 < 4x < 14-3 .... subtracting 3 from all sides

-17 < 4x < 11

-17/4 < x < 11/4 .... divide all sides by 4

-4.25 < x < 2.75

This says that x is between -4.25 and 2.75, but x is not equal to either endpoint.

Note: I used the rule that |x| < k becomes -k < x < k where k is a positive real number.

What are the slope and y-intercept -3x-8y=10
choli [55]
The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

James is at a gift sale where everything costs $4 (tax included).
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

5 gifts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

  • Cost of one gift = $4
  • Total money = $50
  • Money left after purchasing gifts = at least $28

Let x = greatest number of gifts James can buy

Create an inequality with the given information:

⇒ 50 - 4x ≥ 28

<u>Solve the inequality</u>

Add 4x to both sides:

⇒ 50 - 4x + 4x ≥ 28 + 4x

⇒ 50 ≥ 28 + 4x

Subtract 28 from both sides:

⇒ 50 - 28 ≥ 28 + 4x - 28

⇒ 22 ≥ 4x

Divide both sides by 4

⇒ 22 ÷ 4 ≥ 4x ÷ 4

⇒ 5.5 ≥ x

⇒ x ≤ 5.5

We must <u>round down</u> to 5 as if James buys 6 gifts, he will only have $26 remaining.  Therefore, the greatest number of gifts James can buy is <u>5 gifts</u>.

Chloe drives from her house to her grandma's house 64 miles away in an hour and 35 minutes. How fast was she driving on average?
Nataly [62]

Answer:

<h2>She was driving at 40.42 mph on average</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In this exercise, for us to find the speed that Chloe drives with we need to first convert the time she spent driving to hours completely since the time given is in hours and minute

Data

distance= 64 mile

time= 1hr 35min

to covert 1 hr 35 min to hours we have

= 1 + 35/60 (we are converting 35 min to hrs)

= 1+0.583

=  1.583

hence speed= 64/ 1.583

speed= 40.42 mph

She was driving at 40.42 mph on average
