Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

14 -3x < -1, subtract 14 from both sides

    -3x < -1 -14, combine like terms

    -3x < -15, <u>divide both sides by -3 </u>

        x > 5

! when solving inequalities if we <u>multiply or divide by a negative number</u> the sense of inequality changes.

Given: 18x-2(3x+1)=5x-16<br> Prove: x=-2
zlopas [31]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate 18 x - 2 (3 x + 1) = 5 x - 16 where x = -2:

-2×18 - 2 (1 - 2×3) = -2×5 - 16

3 (-2) = -6:

-2×18 - 2 (-6 + 1) = -2×5 - 16

1 - 6 = -5:

-2×18 - 2-5 = -2×5 - 16

18 (-2) = -36:

-36 - 2 (-5) = -2×5 - 16

-2 (-5) = 10:

10 - 36 = -2×5 - 16

5 (-2) = -10:

10 - 36 = -10 - 16

10 - 36 = -26:

-26 = -10 - 16

-10 - 16 = -26:

-26 = -26

-26 is equal to -26:

The power, P (watts) , of a car engine is proportional to the square of its speed, s ( m / s ) . When s = 30 , P = 1260 . Work o
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

875 Watts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

P α s²

P = ks²

Where k is the proportionality constant

When ; p = 1260 ; s = 30

1260 = k * 30²

1260 = 900k

k = 1260 / 900

k = 1.4

Value of p ; when s = 25

P = 1.4 * s²

P = 1.4 * 25²

P = 1.4 * 625

P = 875 watt
