Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

3(2x - 1) - 11x ≤ -3x + 5

Step 2: Solve for x

[Distributive Property Distribute 3: 6x - 3 - 11x ≤ -3x + 5
[Subtraction] Combine like terms: -5x - 3 ≤ -3x + 5
[Addition Property of Equality] Add 5x on both sides: -3 ≤ 2x + 5
[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 5 on both sides: -8 ≤ 2x
[Division Property of Equality] Divide 2 on both sides: -4 ≤ x
Rewrite: x ≥ -4

If one foot is the same length as 12 inches, how many inches equal 3.5 feet? (Only input whole numbers.)

lesantik [10]

1ft=12in
1ft/12in=1

3.5ft=?in
1ft:12in=3.5ft:?in
1ft/12in=3.5ft/?in
times both sides by 12?in
1?=42in

answer is 42 in

or you could just do
3.5 times 12=42 inches

Answer:

<h3>Negative StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression $\frac{1}{2} - 1\frac{1}{5}$ , we are to find the difference

First convert the mixed fraction $1\frac{1}{5}$ to improper fraction

$1\frac{1}{5}$ = $\frac{6}{5}$

The expression becomes;

$\frac{1}{2} - \frac{6}{5}$

Find LCM

$\frac{5-6}{10}$

Evaluate the resulting expression

$\frac{5-12}{10}\\\\\frac{-7}{10}$

Hence the correct option is C i.e Negative StartFraction 7 over 10 EndFraction

Maru [420]

$x^4 \leq 8x^2 -16\\
x^4-8x^2+16\leq0\\
(x^2-4)^2\leq0\\
x^2-4=0\\
x^2=4\\
