Solve this inequality 3p - 16 is less than 20?
p is less than 12.
Solve x squared - 16 equals 0?
x^(2)-16=0 Take the -16 over to the other side of the equal sign, the -16 will turn +16. x^(2)=16 Then take the squared root of both sides. x=4
How would you explain the equation 7x-12 is less than 4x plus 36?
The equation 7x-12 is less than 4x plus 36 means just what it says7x - 12 less than 4x + 36To solve this, treat it like ordinary algebra and solve for x, replacing the equals sign with the less than sign. Remember that if you multiply or divide by a negative number, then the less than sign flips over and becomes the greater than sign.7x - 12 less than 4x + 367x less than 4x + 487x - 4x less than 483x less than 48x less than 16
How do you solve seven less than three times a number is a most 9?
3x - 7 ≤ 9 "Seven less than" means that you subtract seven from the answer. "Three times a number" means that you multiply it. "At most" means that this is the greatest number that it can be, which is, in this case, 9. To solve this, you apply the principle rules of algebra to determine x. 3x ≤ 9 + 7 3x ≤ 16 x ≤ 16/3
Can the gcf of 16 and 42 be than less 16 explain?
It must be less than or equal to the smallest of the set of numbers whose GCF you are trying to obtain. So it must be less than or equal to 16. Furthermore, it is not 16 because 16 is not a factor of 42. Therefore, it must be less than 16.
