Answer 15

False

Answer 16

The equation has infinitely many solutions.

Answer 17

Apologies for the confusion. The equation has one solution.

Answer 18

2x + 12 = 27

Answer 19

The next best step to finish solving the equation would be to subtract 24 from both sides of the equation.

Answer 20

Apologies for the incorrect response. The correct next step to finish solving the equation 3 - 15x + 24 + 16x = 4x - 24 - 4x would be to combine like terms on both sides of the equation:

3 - 15x + 24 + 16x = 4x - 24 - 4x
27 + x = -24

Then, to isolate the variable, -24 needs to be subtracted from both sides of the equation:

27 + x - 24 = -24 - 24
x + 3 = -48

Therefore, the correct next step would be to subtract 24 from both sides of the equation.

Answer 21

3x + 7 > 10

Answer 22

x ≤ 55

Answer 23

You would use an open circle at the point 35 on the number line.

Answer 24

The arrow on the number line would point to the right.

Answer 25

To solve the inequality -5(x+5) > -15, first distribute the -5:

-5x - 25 > -15

Next, add 25 to both sides to isolate the variable:

-5x - 25 + 25 > -15 + 25
-5x > 10

Finally, divide both sides by -5, remembering to flip the inequality sign when dividing by a negative number:

-5x / -5 < 10 / -5
x < -2

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x < -2.

Answer 26

Apologies, but I cannot see the available response options. Please provide the options for me to assist you further.

Answer 27

Without the graphed solutions or available options to match with the inequalities, I cannot directly provide the correct matches. However, I can still help you solve each inequality:

1. -5(x+5) > -15
- Distribute the -5: -5x - 25 > -15
- Add 25 to both sides: -5x > 10
- Divide by -5 (and flip the inequality sign): x < -2

2. 8x < 4x + 28
- Subtract 4x from both sides: 4x < 28
- Divide by 4: x < 7

3. (1/4)(8x+16) > -4
- Multiply both sides by 4 to eliminate the fraction: 8x + 16 > -16
- Subtract 16 from both sides: 8x > -32
- Divide by 8: x > -4

4. -3(x-12) > 0
- Distribute the -3: -3x + 36 > 0
- Subtract 36 from both sides: -3x > -36
- Divide by -3 (and flip the inequality sign): x < 12

I apologize for the inconvenience caused by not being able to match these inequalities with their graphed solutions.

Answer 28

a. To solve for x, the original number of colored pencils in your box, we can set up the equation:
(x/2) + 3 = 15

Here, the (x/2) represents the number of colored pencils you have after sharing equally with your friend (since you both get half), and adding 3 represents the additional colored pencils you kept for yourself. The sum is equal to the total of 15 colored pencils.

Let's solve the equation step by step:
(x/2) + 3 = 15
Subtract 3 from both sides:
(x/2) = 15 - 3
(x/2) = 12
Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction:
2 * (x/2) = 2 * 12
x = 24

Therefore, the original number of colored pencils in your box was 24.

b. To find out how many colored pencils you would have needed originally to have at least 20 left, we can set up another equation:
x - (x/2) + 3 ≥ 20

Here, (x/2) represents the number of colored pencils shared with your friend, and adding 3 represents the additional pencils you kept. We want this total to be greater than or equal to the desired 20 colored pencils left.

Let's solve the inequality step by step:
x - (x/2) + 3 ≥ 20
Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction:
2 * (x - (x/2) + 3) ≥ 2 * 20
2x - x + 6 ≥ 40
Combine like terms:
x + 6 ≥ 40
Subtract 6 from both sides:
x ≥ 40 - 6
x ≥ 34

Therefore, you would have needed at least 34 colored pencils in your box originally to have at least 20 left.

c. The inequality representing having at least 20 colored pencils left can be written as:
x - (x/2) + 3 ≥ 20

In this inequality, (x/2) represents the number of colored pencils shared with your friend, and adding 3 represents the additional pencils you kept. We want this total to be greater than or equal to the desired 20 colored pencils left.

Please note that the inequality is the same as in part b, as we are solving for the same condition.

Answer 29

To solve the equation 3(x - 5) + 2x = 0, let's fill in the blanks with the correct values:

3x + ___ + 2x = 0
5x + ___ = 0
___ = 0

First, distribute the 3:
3x - 15 + 2x = 0

Combine like terms:
5x - 15 = 0

Add 15 to both sides:
5x = 15

Now, solve for x:
x = 15/5
x = 3

So, the filled-in values are:
3x + (5 - 15) + 2x = 0
5x - 15 = 0
x = 3
