Explain the error in the work shown. Find the correct answer.

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

all three statements are true

step-by-step explanation:

a shipping fee of 5% is charged online with every item purchased online

first let's just take each option and calculate them based on this, to see if the answers matched

keith buys a 40 dollar book

40 x 0.05 = 2

therefore there will be a two dollar fee on keith's book

40 + 2 =42

the first statement is true

a chair costs $80

80 x 0.05 = 4

80 + 4 = 84

the second statement is true

george buys a 20 dollar calculator

20 x 0.05 = 1

20 + 1 = 21

the third statements are true

all three statements are true
