Treat as an equality, except flip the sign direction when yo multiply or divide both sides by a negative number
first distribute
2(4+2x)<u>></u>5x+5
distribute
8+4x<u>></u>5x+5
minus 4x fro both sides
8<u>></u>x+5
minus 5 from both sides
3<u>></u>x
x<u><</u>3
x is less than or equal to 3

Answer:
-20/7
Step-by-step explanation:
5m +72 = -2m + 52
5m + 2m = 52-72
7m = -20
m = -20/7
A*5+b*2=145
a +b =50 | * -2
5a +2b=145
-2a -2b = -100
----------------------
5a-2a = 145-100
3a= 45
a=45:3
a=15 questions are worth 5 p
b=50-15=35 questions worth 2 p
