Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

n - 7 > -11

Step 2: Solve for n

[Addition Property of Equality] Add 7 on both sides:                                  n > -4

Here we see that any value n greater than -4 would work as a solution.

7 < x < 37 -- Triangle 1

6.5 < x < 19.9 -- Triangle 2

22 < x < 46 -- Triangle 3

21 < x < 67 -- Triangle 4

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Given

2 sides of a triangle

1. 22 and 15

2. 13.2 and 6.7

3. 34 and 12

4. 23 and 44

Required

Determine the range of the third side in the above triangles

Triangle 1: 22 and 15

Represent the third side with x

We'll make use of the following conditions to calculate  the range of the third side;

22 + x  15

22 + 15  x

15 + x  22

Solving

22 + x  15

Make x the subject of formula

x  15 - 22

x  -7

Solving

22 + 15  x

37  x

Solving

15 + x  22

Make x the subject of formula

x  22 - 15

x  7

The next step is to dismiss the inequality with negative digit; So, we're left with

37  x and x  7

Rewrite both inequalities

x < 37 and 7 < x

Combine the two inequalities

7 < x < 37

Triangle 2:  13.2 and 6.7

19.9  x

Solving

6.7 + x  13.2

Make x the subject of formula

x  13.2 - 6.7

x  6.5

The next step is to dismiss the inequality with negative digit; So, we're left with

1: 6

2: 1,2,3

3: 4m-1>5m-4

4: Not enough data

5: n = 11

6: The ceiling is lower than 3m

7: G = 7

8: C = 18

9: p + 18 = 41; p = 23

10: D = 100t

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

5*2+x/2-7

5*2+6/2-7

10+6/2-7

10+3-7

13-7

6

Question 2:

4*2<16

8<16 True

4*1<16

4<16 True

4*3<16

12<16 True

4*4<16

16<16 False

Question 3:

Let's plug in 1 for m

4*1-15*1-4

4-15-4

31

3>1

Question 4:

You did not give an equation, so I cannot answer.

Question 5:

2*11 + 5 =27

22 + 5 = 27

27 = 27

So n = 11

Question 6:

x<3

The ceiling is lower than 3m because x<3

Question 7:

5.1g = 35.7

5.1g/5.1=35.7/5.1

g = 7

Check: 5.1 * 7 = 35.7

Question 8:

36 + c = 54

36 + c -36 = 54 - 36

c = 18

Check: 36 + 18 = 54

Question 9:

p + 18 = 41; p = 23 is correct because the number of paperback books plus the number of hardcover books would equal the total number of books sold. Check: 23 + 18 = 41

Question 10:

d=100t is correct because each time t goes up one it goes up 100. Example: if it is at one hour, than it is 100, if it is at 3 hours, than d = 100*3 = 300, which is the same pattern as the table.

x ≤ a → x ∈ (-∞, a]

x < a → x ∈ (-∞, a)

x ≥ a → x ∈ [a, ∞)

x < a → x ∈ (a, ∞)

Therefore:

x ≥ 7.8 → [7.8, ∞)

x < 7.8 → (-∞, 7.8)

x ≤ 7.8 → (-∞, 7.8]

x > 7.8 → (7.8, ∞)

x≤7.8  ⇒(-∞;7.8]

x<7.8  ⇒ (-∞;7.8)

x>7.8  ⇒ (7.8; ∞)

x≥7.8  ⇒ [7.8; ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze each expression:

•x≤7.8

The solution is all the numbers less or equal to 7.8, since it can be equal to 7.8, it includes 7.8 , we have to use closed brackets

(-∞;7.8]

•x<7.8

All the numbers less than 7.8 , it excludes the endpoint , it's an open interval (parenthesis)

(-∞;7.8)

•x>7.8

All the numbers higher than 7.8, open interval (parenthesis)

(7.8; ∞)

•x≥7.8

All the numbers higher or equal to 7.8, closed interval (closed brackets for the endpoint)

[7.8; ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

The line between -3 and 2 is not shaded so it is not -3 < x < 2. Instead, the lines to the left of -3 and to the right of 2 are shaded.

Therefore the correct answer is x < -3 or x > 2.
