1x -8 < 2x + 1 What is the largest integer value that makes this inequality true

Mathematics
1 answer:
professor190 [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The largest integer value that makes the inequality true is 9.

General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Algebra I</u>

Equality Properties

  • Multiplication Property of Equality
  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtraction Property of Equality

Terms/Coefficients

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify.</em>

1x - 8 < 2x + 1

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><u><em>x</em></u>

  1. Simplify:                                                                                                            x - 8 < 2x + 1
  2. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides:                        -8 < x + 1
  3. [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 1 on both sides:                        -8 < x
  4. Rewrite:                                                                                                           x > -8

∴ we see that any number <em>x greater than -8</em> would work as a solution to the inequality. That would mean the next largest integer, 9, would be our answer.

I NEED HELP ASAP!!!<br><br> Find the measure of angle A using the image below:
Andreyy89

Answer:

A = 125º

Step-by-step explanation:

Missing angle is the supplement of 157.5

180 - 157.5 = 22.5

----------------------------

Sum of angles in triangle is 180

22.5 + (-10x) + (-x + 20) = 180

Combine like terms

-11x + 42.5 = 180

Subtract 42.5 from both sides

-11x = 137.5

Divide both sides by -11

x = -12.5

---------------------------

A = -10(-12.5)

A = 125º

Forty randomly selected students were asked the number of pairs of sneakers they owned. Let X = the number of pairs of sneakers
eimsori [14]

The mean of sample x is 5.83

The standard deviation is 5.63

<h3>What is standard deviation?</h3>

A standard deviation (or σ) is a measure of how dispersed the data is in relation to the mean. Low standard deviation means data are clustered around the mean, and high standard deviation indicates data are more spread out.

Given:

Frequency:  2 2 4 13 13 1

If x is the pair of sneakers owned of the frequency,

mean = 2+2+4+13+13+1/5

= 35/6

= 5.83

The  standard deviation is equal to 5.63.

The equation of line WX is 2x + y = -5. What is the equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope-intercept form that con
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

The third choice is the one you want

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are to write the equation of a line perpendicular to WX, we first must determine what the slope of the WX is, because the line perpendicular to WX has a slope that is the flip of the slope of WX with the opposite sign.  Solving for y takes care of finding the slope of WX:

2x + y = -5 so

y = -2x - 5

The slope is -2.  That means that the reciprocal slope is 1/2.  Using that slope along with the coordinates x = -1 and y = -2, we first write the line using point-slope form and then solve it for y.  Start by filling in the m, the x value and the y value:

y - (-2) = \frac{1}{2}(x-(-1))

Getting rid of the double negatives gives us:

y+2=\frac{1}{2}(x+1)

Distributing then gives us:

y+2=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}

And finally solving for y (I am going to express the 2 on the left as 4/2 when I move it by subtraction in order to add those fractions):

y=\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{4}{2}

And the final equation in slope-intercept form is:

y=\frac{1}{2}x-\frac{3}{2}
