<em><u>ANSWER</u></em>

1. 3x + 2 <u><</u> 14

= 3x + 2 - 2 <u><</u> 14- 2

= 3x <u><</u> 12

= 3x/3 <u><</u> 12/3

= x <u><</u> 4

2. -5 + 2x > 15

= -5 + -5 + 2x > 15 - 5

= 2x > 10

= 2x/2 > 10/2

= x > 5

3. -2x + 4 <u>></u> 18

= -2x + 4 - 4 <u>></u> 18 - 4

= -2x <u>></u> 14

= -2x/-2 <u>></u> 14/-2

= x <u>></u> -7

Answer:

  1. x ≤ 4
  2. x > 10
  3. x ≤ -7

Step-by-step explanation:

We're guessing you want to solve for x in each case. You do this in basically the same way you would solve an equation.

1. 3x +2 ≤ 14

  3x ≤ 12 . . . . . subtract 2

  x ≤ 4 . . . . . . . divide by 3

__

2. -5 +2x > 15

  2x > 20 . . . . . . add 5

  x > 10 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

__

3. -2x +4 ≥ 18

  4 ≥ 18 +2x . . . . . add 2x

  -14 ≥ 2x . . . . . . . subtract 18

  -7 ≥ x . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The statement above that the same methods for solving apply to both equations and inequalities has an exception. The exception is that some operations reverse the order of numbers, so make the inequality symbol reverse. The usual operations we're concerned with are <em>multiplication and division by a negative number</em>: -2 < -1; 2 > 1, for example. There are other such operations, but they tend to be used more rarely for inequalities.

You will note that we avoided division by -2 in the solution of the third inequality by adding 2x to both sides, effectively giving the variable term a positive coefficient. You will notice that also changes its relation to the inequality symbol, just as if we had left the term where it was and reversed the symbol: -2x ≥ 14 ⇔ -14 ≥ 2x ⇔ x ≤ -7 ⇔ -7 ≥ x

What is 2 = y/5-8 plzzz answer!!!
umka2103 [35]
It's a simple linear equation in 'y'.  There is only one number that 'y' can be
that will make the equation a true statement.  That number is called the
'solution' to the equation.   Here's one way to find it:

You said that                         <u> 2  =  y/5 - 8</u>

Add  8  to each side:          10  =  y/5

Multiply each side by  5:  <em>  50  =  y</em>

The shortest side of an isosceles triangle is 2x - 3 inches long. the longer sides are 6 inches longer than the shortest side. t
Zolol [24]
Side 1 = short side = 2x-3
side 2 = longer side = (short side) + 6 = (2x-3)+6 = 2x+3
side 3 = side 2 = 2x+3

Side 2 and side 3 are the longer two congruent sides

Add up the three sides and set them equal to the given perimeter of 33. Solve for x

(side1)+(side2)+(side3) = perimeter
(2x-3)+(2x+3)+(2x+3) = 33
(2x+2x+2x) + (-3+3+3) = 33
6x+3 = 33
6x+3-3 = 33-3
6x = 30
6x/6 = 30/6
x = 5

If x = 5, then the longer sides are 2*x+3 = 2*5+3 = 10+3 = 13 inches each
(note: the short side is 2*x-3=2*5-3=10-3 = 7 inches)

Answer: 13 inches
