Answer:An absolute value inequality is solved by re-writing it as compound inequality. For example.
|x+1| < 5
Since the value inside the absolute value brackets: (x+1) can be positive or negative, it is re-written as a compound inequality as the example below.
x+1 < 5
x+1 > - 5
solve for the range of values x can be
-6 < x < 4
Step-by-step explanation: How to solve inequalities
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First, put together the information we have. Total = 121. Emily has 40% more than Carl, and Carl has 60% more than Antony.
2. Next, set each person as a variable. Antony = x. Carl = 1.6x. Emily = 1.4 times 1.6x.
3. Next, form an equation using these variables.
x + 1.6x + (1.4 x 1.6x) = 121
x + 1.6x + 2.24x = 121
4.84x = 121
x = 25
4. Finally, plug in x to our previous variables in step #2 to find the number of stamps Emily and Carl have.
<u>Antony</u>: x = 25 stamps
<u>Carl:</u> 1.6x = 40 stamps
<u>Emily</u>: 1.4 times 1.6x = 56 stamps
By the way, is this for RSM? If so, I am working on that problem right now and I searched up the solution but couldn't find it, so I stumbled upon this. I hope this helped!
Step-by-step explanation:
80+60+x+51= 180
191+x= 180
x= -11
