What are the solutions of the compound inequality? Graph the solutions. –2 < 4x – 10 < 6 A. 4 < x < 12 B. -3 < x < -1 C. –16 < x < –8 D. 2 < x < 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well you can start out by adding 10 to the -2, (4x-10), and the 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok My Daughter has been on these three problems for like 6 hrs and I don't remember any of this I suck at Math I need help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[–2 < 4x – 10 < 6 \] you want to get \(x\), which is in the middle, by itself in the middle, without the \(4x-10\) just \(x\) add \(10\) all the way across as a first step

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get \[-2+10<4x<6+10\] or \[8<4x<16\] now you have gotten rid of the \(-10\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

next step is to divide everything by \(4\) to get \(x\) alone dividing by 4 all the way across gives \[2<x<4\] and that is the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is like greek to me I feel so old Thanks so much I would really love to save you as a friend because she has 3 more I can't help her and she is getting ready for a big test 8th grade is not the same geesh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

go ahead and ask another, i will be happy to answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are the solutions of the inequality? Graph the solutions. b – 4 > 4 A. b >0 B. b > 8 C. b > –8 D. b < –8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to get \(b\) by itself you need to add \(4\) to both sides of the inequality

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(b-4>4\) add \(4\) to both sides and get \[b>8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow you are fast

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you have to draw a picture it looks like this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1366683916020:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have another

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What compound inequality represents the phrase? Graph the solutions. all real numbers that are greater than –8 and less than 8 A. –8 < x < 8 B. –8 < x < 8 C. –8 < x 8 D. –8 x 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

greater than \(-8\) and less that \(8\) means \[-8<x<8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

looks like your answer A and B are the same, maybe it is a typo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you do this so fast?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is not really "doing" it is more just "knowing" like putting on a seatbelt, you know how to do it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am trying its not coming back so fast!! lol I guess I just an old lady.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are the solutions of the equation? Graph and check the solutions. | x | + 10 = 1 A. x = 9 B. x = 9 or x = –9 C. x = 0 D. no solution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you don't use it, you will forget for sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[|x|+10=1\] is not possible because if you subtract \(10\) from both sides you get \[|x|=-9\] but the absolute value is always greater than or equal to zero, so it cannot be \(-9\) there is no solution

You have two boxes of colored pens. The first box contains a red pen, a blue pen, and green pen. The second box contains a yellow pen, a red pen, and a black pen. What is the set that represents all the pens? A. {red pen, blue pen, green pen} B. {red pen} C. {red pen, red pen, green pen, yellow pen, black pen} D. {red pen, blue pen, green pen, yellow pen, black pen}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this a trick question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess so in set notation you do not repeat things, put only one of each

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh Im sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks so much!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i didn't mean to be critical i was answering the question when you write in set notation you don't repeat elements, so you would not write {red pen, red pen, green pen, yellow pen, black pen}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you would write instead D. {red pen, blue pen, green pen, yellow pen, black pen}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw
