What is the answer to this inequality -X+5<-1/3+17=?

Add the numbers: 3+17 = 20

-x + 5 < -1/20

Apply the fraction rule: -a/b = - a/b

-x + 5 < - 1/20

Subtract 5 from both sides

-x + 5 - 5 < 1/20 - 5

Simplify

-x< - 101/20

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverse the inequality)

(-x) (-1) > (-101/20) (-1)

x> 101/20 is the final answer

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752
