We are given : -3(4-6x) < x+5.
Solution: -3 is in front of Parenthesis.
We need to multiply -3 by (4-6x).
So, we need to applying distributive property.
On distributing, we get
-12+18x < x+5 (By distributive property)
The reverse operation of addition is subtraction. So we need to subtract x from both sides, we get
-12+18x-x < x-x+5 (By subtraction property of equality).
-12+17x < 5
Now, we need to get rid -12 from left side.
So, we need to apply addition property of equality, we need to add 12 on both sides, we get
-12+12+18x < x+5+12 (By addition property of equality)
17x < 17
We need to get rid 17 from left side. So we need to apply division property of equality.
On dividing both sides by 17, we get
17x/17 < 17/17 (By division property of equality)
x < 1.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
let the integer be x .
three consecutive integers : x, x+1, x+2.
according to the problem,.
Let the first of the 3 consecutive numbers be X.
Therefore the second number is (X + 1)
The third number is therefore (X + 2)
The product of the 3 consecutive numbers is:
( X )( X + 1 )( X + 2 ) = 3360 Equation( 1 )
Expanding Equation ( 1 ) gives
X³ + 3X² + 2X - 3360 = 0 Equation (2)
Solve Equation (2 ) which gives the following values for X
X1 = 14
X2 = - 8.5 + i (12.951834)
X3 = - 8.5 - i (12.951834).
the numbers are 14,15,16.
sum is 14+15+16 = 45.
hope this helps you.
