-8 > -5x + 2 > -38...subtract 2
-8 - 2 > -5x + 2 - 2 > -38 - 2
-10 > -5x > -40 ... now divide by -5, and change inequality sign
-10/-5 < (-5/-5)x < -40/-5
2 < x < 8
Answer:
34%
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the empirical rule, 68% of all of the data in a normal distribution falls within one standard deviation of the mean.
Applying to this particular case, 68% of the requests fall within (50 - 7) and (50+ 7). The percentage of requests from 43 to 50 is equal to the percentage of requests from 50 to 57.
Therefore, the percentage of light bulb replacement requests numbering between 50 and 57 is 68/2 = 34%.
8 - 4(-x + 5)
As you already know, in order to find the equivalent expression to our already given one, we have to simplify it first :)
8 +4x - 20
**Remember that a negative times a negative is always a positive!!**
Add like terms.
4x + (8 - 20)
Simplify.
4x + (-12)
Get rid of parenthesis.
4x - 12
Look at our answer choices.
Our answer is a. 4x - 12
~Hope I helped!~
Its C.

15 + 5x = 0
Solving
15 + 5x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-15' to each side of the equation.
15 + -15 + 5x = 0 + -15
Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0
0 + 5x = 0 + -15
5x = 0 + -15
Combine like terms: 0 + -15 = -15
5x = -15
Divide each side by '5'.
x = -3
Simplifying
x = -3</span>
