Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To factor the equation, break it into two binomials which multiply to make the equation. To write these binomials (x+a)(x+b), find factors which multiply to -20 and add to -1 for a and b.
20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20
-5+4 = -1

To find this, turn the word question into an equation.
"One less than" means - 1, which is 1 being subtracted from something.
"half a number" means 1/2x, since 1/2 is half and x is unknown.
"is 12" means = 12, which is something equals 12.
Putting this in order would be 1/2x, then - 1, then = 12.
As an equation, this is 1/2x - 1 = 12.
So the equation is 1/2x - 1 = 12
Now you must find the number by solving this equation.
1/2x - 1 = 12
First, add 1 to both sides.
12 + 1 = 13
1/2x = 13
Now multiply both sides by 2.
This way, x will be isolated since 1/2x • 2 = 1x, and 1x = x.
13 • 2 = 26
x = 26
The number is 26.
First you have to solve both inequalities,
3x-1>8
3x>9
x>3
and the other one
2x≤4
x≤2
then you graph each one on the number line
the graph says or, so the solution can satisfy either equation
the solution would be all real numbers except three
the way to write it is x≠3
