what 1 4thx - 3 4th >5 wholes and 1 4th

Answer 1

To solve the inequality, we need to calculate the value of each side of the equation:

1 4thx - 3 4th > 5 wholes and 1 4th

1 4thx - 3 4th represents a fraction, which we need to convert into a common denominator. The common denominator is 4, so:

1 4thx - 3 4th = (1/4)x - (3/4) = (1 - 3)/4 = -2/4 = -1/2

So, the inequality becomes:

-1/2 > 5 + 1/4

Now we need to find a common denominator to add the fractions on the right side:

-1/2 > 20/4 + 1/4

Simplifying, we have:

-1/2 > 21/4

Now, we can compare the left side with the right side:

-1/2 is less than 21/4.

Therefore, the inequality -1/2 > 5 wholes and 1 4th is not true.
