What value of x is in the solution set of –2(3x + 2) > –8x + 6

5 <x

Step-by-step explanation:

–2(3x + 2) > –8x + 6

Divide each side by -2, remembering to flip the inequality

–2/-2(3x + 2) < –8x/-2 + 6/-2

3x+2 < 4x-3

Subtract 3x from each side

3x-3x+2 < 4x-3x-3

2 < x-3

Add 3 to each side

2+3 < x-3+3

5 <x

Step-by-step explanation:

-2( 3x + 2) > -8x + 6

-2*3x + (-2)*2 > -8x + 6

-6x  - 4 > -8x + 6

Add 4 to both sides

-6x - 4 + 4 > -8x + 6 + 4   { add like terms}

-6x > -8x + 10

Add 8x to both sides

-6x + 8x > - 8x + 10 + 8x

2x  > 10

Divide both sides by 2

2x/2 > 10/2

x > 5

answer: no

step-by-step explanation:

you are only given the cost not the amount of pounds.

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier
