Question

find all values of x that make 0.1x+ 0.25(102-x) <17.10.true

Answer 1

find all values of x that make 0.1x+ 0.25(102-x) <17.10.true ​

we have the expression

$0.1x+0.25(102-x)\text{ < 17.10}$

solve the expression for x

apply distributive property left side

0.1x+0.25*102-0.25x < 17.10

0.1x+25.5-0.25x < 17.10

combine like terms left side

-0.15x-25.5< 17.10

Adds 25
