Answer:
x > 1
Step-by-step explanation:
15 - 1 = 14
The inequality is 15 - 1 < 14, but this is incorrect. 14 can not be less than 14. In order for the left side to be less than 14, the x value (currently representing 1) should be larger than what it currently is to make the statement true.
Therefore, x>1
Answer:
D. 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum means addition (+)
Sum of a number, x and 1/2=4
This means the addition of the two numbers
x+1/2=4
Make x the subject of formula
x=4-1/2
Finding the L.C.M
= 8-1/2
x=7/2
x=3 1/2
By pulling out the common factors for each pair of terms, we can rewrite the original polynomial like this:
3x(2x + 1) + 10(2x + 1)
These two terms now have a common factor of (2x + 1). Seems like we should be able to do something with that information, don't you think? In fact, we can pull out this common factor and rewrite the polynomial again:
Absolute value is a positive number
So -7-1 = -6
