The number -2 is a solution to which of the following inequalities?
x + 7 > 5
-3 x < 1
x - 7 < -4

Answers

Answer 1
The answer is the third one, x - 7 < 4

To find it all you need to do is plug in -2 for x and see if the inequality is true.

When you do the math for the first one, you get 5 > 5. That is not true as 5 is equal to 5, not greater.

For the second one you get 6 < 1. Again, that is not true as 1 is not greater than 6.

Finally, you get -9 < -4 for the third one. This one is correct as -9 is a smaller number than -4.

Answer:

[tex]Mean = \frac{4x + 5}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Dan sold = x

Harry sold 5 more than Dan, that is = x + 5

Regan sold twice as Dan = 2x

[tex]Mean = \frac{ Total \ cars \ sold}{number\ of \ them \ sold \ it }\\\\Mean = \frac{x + ( x+ 5) +2x }{3} = \frac{4x + 5}{3}[/tex]
