Write the word sentence as an inequality. Then solve the inequality. Three less than a number x is more than 15.

x - 3 > 15 ;

x > 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a number, x

3 less than x ; x - 3

3 less than x is more than 15

The inequality expression becomes ;

x - 3 > 15

We can solve for X ;

x - 3 > 15

Add 3 to both sides ;

x - 3 + 3 > 15 + 3

x > 18

b

step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
