Answer:

  • C. x > 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>According to the triangle inequality theorem, any side length is less than the sum of the other two:</u>

  • x < 2x + 1 + x + 4 ⇒ x < 3x + 5 ⇒ 2x > - 5 ⇒ x > - 2.5
  • 2x + 1 < x + x + 4 ⇒ 2x + 1 < 2x + 4 ⇒ 1 < 4, any value of x
  • x + 4 < x + 2x + 1 ⇒ x + 4 < 3x + 1 ⇒ 2x > 3 ⇒ x > 3/2

<u>Common solution of the three inequalities above is:</u>

  • x > 3/2

Correct choice is C

before getting to school john has a few errands to run john has to walk 5 blocks to the galley and 9 blocks to the library befor
Serggg [28]

Answer:

  9 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of what John has already walked and the number more he must walk will be equal to the number he has to walk to get to school.

  12 + more = 5 + 9 + 7

  more = 9 + 5 + 7 - 12 . . . . . subtract 12 from both sides

  more = 9

John must walk 9 blocks more.

_____

We recognize that 5+7 = 12, so that last part of the sum totals zero.
