Answer:
x ≤ 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4+2x) ≥ 5x+5 (by PEDMAS, expand parentheses first)
4(2) + 2x(2) ≥ 5x + 5
8 + 4x ≥ 5x + 5 (subtract 8 from each side)
4x ≥ 5x + 5 - 8
4x ≥ 5x - 3 (subtract 5x from both sides)
4x -5x ≥ - 3
-x ≥ - 3 (multiply both sides by -1, remember to flip the inequality when multiplying both sides by a negative number)
x ≤ 3
Use Excel graphing. Then make histogram (a graph that represents values with columns)
Answer:
x=# of boys
x+7=# of girls
x+x+7=25
2x+7=25
2x=25-7
2x=18
x=18/2
x=9 boys
x+7=16 girls
If you don't understand variables use trial and error.
