For this case we must find the solution of the following inequality:
5(x+5)<85
We apply distributive property on the left side of inequality:
5x+25<85
We subtract 25 from both sides of the inequality:
5x<85-25
5x<60
We divide between 5 on both sides of the inequality:
x<60/5
x<12
Thus, the solution is given by all values of x less than 12.
x<12
An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign. For example, 3x – 5 = 16 is an equation. Solving this equation, we get the value of the variable x as x = 7.
The standard form for linear equations in two variables is Ax+By=C. For example, 2x+3y=5 is a linear equation in standard form. When an equation is given in this form, it's pretty easy to find both intercepts (x and y). This form is also very useful when solving systems of two linear equations.

The fifth term of a sequence whose first term is 5 and whose common ratio is 3 will be 405. Then the correct option is B.
A series of non-zero integers where every term after the first is obtained by increasing the one before it by a constant, non-zero value known as the scale factor.
Let a₁ be the first term and r be the common ratio.
Then the nth term of the geometric sequence is given as,
aₙ = a₁ · (r)ⁿ⁻¹
The first term is 5 and its common ratio is 3. Then the formula is given as,
aₙ = 5 · (3)ⁿ⁻¹
The fifth term of a sequence will be given as,
a₅ = 5 · (3)⁵⁻¹
a₅ = 5 · (3)⁴
a₅ = 5 · 81
a₅ = 405
The fifth term of a sequence whose first term is 5 and whose common ratio is 3 will be 405. Then the correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
/3 b. 2x + 3y = 432 and 5x – 2y = 16
Answer:
Answer:
A.
5x-2y= -6-------(1)
2x-y= 1------(2)
Equation (1) - 2 × Equation (2)
→5x-2y-4x+2y= -6 -2
Adding and Subtracting like terms
→x= - 8
Putting the value of x in equation 2
→2×(-8) -y =1
→-16 -y=1
Adding 16 on both sides of equation
→-y=16+1
→y = -17
x= -8, and y= -17
B
2x + 3y = 432------(3)
5x – 2y = 16---------(4)
2×Equation (3) + 3 × Equation (4)
→4x+6y+15x-6y=864+48
→19 x=912
Dividing both sides by 19, we get
x=48
Putting the value of x, in equation (3)
2× 48+3y=432
96+3y=432
3y=432-96
3y=336
Dividing both sides by,3 we get
y=112
Solution set is equal to, x=48,y=112
