Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
6 and 8 are quite more common.
Answer: x > 5
Explanation: First we want to look at our variable and ask ourselves what's happening to it. Since 2 is being subtracted from 9x, we always undo addition and subtraction first so we add 2 to both sides.
That gives us 9x > 45.
Now we need to undo multiplication and division. Since 9 is being multiplied by <em>x</em>, to get <em>x</em> by itself, we need to divide by 9 on the left side of the inequality. If we divide by 9 on the left side, we must also divide by 9 on the right side.
This leaves us with <em>x > 5</em> which is the solution to this inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:
Ping's Location: (3rd Street, 6th Avenue)
Ari's Location: (21st Street, 18th Avenue)
The gym is at point P which is
the distance from Ping's home to Ari's home.
That is, Point P divides the line segment in the ratio 2:1.
We use the section formula:

m:n=2:1, 

The gym is located at 15th Street and 14th Avenue.
