95 – 2x < 7 (15x – 17)
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are given the algebraic sign with the Inequality sign
95 - 2x < 7 (15x - 17)
In order to find all the possible values of x that makes the algebraic expression true ,
We solve for this by convert the less than(<) sign to =
A true statement or algebraic expression is when both values on the left hand side and right hand side of and algebraic expression is the same of equal to each other.
Therefore:
95 - 2x = 7 (15x - 17)
95 - 2x = 105x - 119
Collect like terms
95 + 119 = 105x + 2x
214 = 107x
x = 214/107
x = 2
In other to confirm if x = 2 makes the expression true
95 - 2x = 7 (15x - 17)
95 - 2x = 105x - 119
95 - 2 × 2 = 105 × 2 - 119
95 - 4 = 210 - 119
91 = 91
Therefore, the possible values for x that make the statement true is x = 2
Which is the equation of the given line in ponit-slope form?
A. y + 4 = 9/8(x + 1)
B. y + 1 = 8/9(x + 4)
C. y + 1 = 8/7(x + 4)
y - 1 = 8/9(x - 4)

2.
Write the equation of the line in standard form.
A. -8x + 9y = 23
B. -8x + 9y = -23
C. -8x + 7y = 25
D. -9x + 8y = -23
Answer:
1. B
2. A
Step-by-step explanation:
The point slope form of a line is where . We write
To find m, count the slope from each marked point on the graph. Notice one is 1/2 so we will count by halves. The slope is 8/9
This means B is the point slope form. To convert to the standard form, it must be written as . We convert using inverse operations.
It looks like we have
and we want to find .
Since is approaching 5, we don't care about the value of when .
We do care about how behaves to either side of . If from below, then , so that
On the other hand, if from above, then , so that
The one-sided limits do not match, since 0 ≠ 8, so the limit does not exist.
