Answer:
2nd option, x > 1.10
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 5 to both sides,
Divided both sides by 7,
Apply Exponent Rule,
x > ln(3) or x > 1.09861

Your first answer is correct but I’m not sure if your second is. But I’m leaning towards it is not correct.
Hope this helps!
(Don’t forget to mark branliest if it is correct :) )
Answer:
10. ( 7x + 2 ) × ( 5x + 1 )
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 35x² + 10x + 7x + 2
2. 5x × ( 7x + 2 ) + 7x + 2
3. ( 7x + 2 ) × ( 5x + 1 )
First, a bit of housekeeping:
<span>The meaning of four consecutive even numbers is 15. Wouldn't that be "mean," not meaning? Very different concepts!
The greatest of these numbers is _______ a^1
"a^1" means "a to the first power. There are no powers in this problem statement. Perhaps you meant just "a" or "a_1" or a(1).
The least of these numbers is ______a^2.
No powers in this problem statement. Perhaps you meant a_2 or a(2)
In this problem you have four numbers. All are even, and there's a spacing of 2 units between each pair of numbers (consecutive even).
The mean, or arithmetic average, of these numbers is (a+b+c+d) / 4, where a, b, c and d represent the four consecutive even numbers. Here this mean is 15. The mean is most likely positioned between b anc c.
So here's what we have: a+b+c+d
------------- = 15
4
This is equivalent to a+b+c+d = 60.
Since the numbers a, b, c and d are consecutive even integers, let's try this:
a + (a+2) + (a+4) + (a+6) = 60. Then 4a+2+4+6=60, or 4a = 48, or a=12.
Then a=12, b=14, c=16 and d=18. Note how (12+14+16+18) / 4 = 15, which is the given mean.
We could also type, "a(1)=12, a(2)=14, a(3) = 16, and a(4) = 18.
