Julia is allowed to watch no more than 5 hours of television a week. So far this week, she has watched 1.5 hours. Write and solve an inequality to show how many hours of television Julia can still watch this week.
(3 points)
Let x be the number of hours of television Julia can still watch this week.
The inequality can be written as:
1.5 + x ≤ 5
To solve for x, we subtract 1.5 from both sides:
1.5 + x - 1.5 ≤ 5 - 1.5
x ≤ 3.5
Julia can still watch no more than 3.5 hours of television this week.

a. Solve a-9 =20
b. Solve b - 9 > 20
c. How is solving the equation in part a similar to solving the inequality in part b?
d. How are the solutions different?
a. Solve a-9 = 20:
We want to isolate the variable a, so we can start by adding 9 to both sides:
a - 9 + 9 = 20 + 9
a = 29
The solution is a = 29.
b. Solve b - 9 > 20:
We want to isolate the variable b, so we can start by adding 9 to both sides:
b - 9 + 9 > 20 + 9
b > 29
The solution is b > 29.
c. How is solving the equation in part a similar to solving the inequality in part b?
In both cases, we start by isolating the variable by performing the same operation on both sides of the equation or inequality. In this case, we added 9 to both sides.
d. How are the solutions different?
In part a, we obtained a specific value for a, which is a = 29. This means that a can only be equal to 29.
In part b, we obtained an inequality (b > 29). This means that b can be any value greater than 29. It could be 30, 31, 32, and so on. The solution is a range of values rather than a single value.

-2-3+2x-6x-2y+4+3x^2
Answer Attempt 1 out of 3
You must answer all questions above in order to submit.
To simplify the expression -2 - 3 + 2x - 6x - 2y + 4 + 3x^2, let's combine like terms:
First, let's combine the x terms: 2x - 6x + 3x^2. We cannot simplify this any further since the exponents are different.
Next, we can combine the constant terms: -2 - 3 + 4.
Finally, we have -2y as another term.
Putting it all together, the simplified expression is:
3x^2 - 4x - 1 - 2y.
Therefore, the simplified expression is 3x^2 - 4x - 1 - 2y.
Solve for b.
6b - 11 = -23
To solve for b in the equation 6b - 11 = -23, we can isolate the variable b by performing the necessary steps:
First, let's add 11 to both sides of the equation:
6b - 11 + 11 = -23 + 11
This simplifies to:
6b = -12
Next, let's divide both sides of the equation by 6:
(6b)/6 = (-12)/6
This simplifies to:
b = -2
Therefore, the solution for b is -2.
Solve for x.
-x/8 - 11 = -2
To solve for x in the equation -x/8 - 11 = -2, we can isolate the variable x by performing the necessary steps:
First, let's add 11 to both sides of the equation:
-x/8 - 11 + 11 = -2 + 11
This simplifies to:
-x/8 = 9
Next, to eliminate the fraction, let's multiply both sides of the equation by 8:
8 * -x/8 = 9 * 8
This simplifies to:
-x = 72
Finally, to isolate x, let's multiply both sides of the equation by -1:
(-1)(-x) = (-1)(72)
This simplifies to:
x = -72
Therefore, the solution for x is -72.
Lillian bought snacks for her team's practice. She bought a bag of apples for $2.36 and a 4-pack of juice bottles. The total cost before tax was $6.48. How much was each bottle of juice?
Let's assume the cost of each bottle of juice is x dollars.
The total cost of the bag of apples is $2.36.
The total cost of the 4-pack of juice bottles would be 4 times the cost of each bottle, which is 4x.
The total cost before tax is $6.48.
So, we can write the equation:
2.36 + 4x = 6.48
To solve for x, we can start by subtracting 2.36 from both sides:
4x = 6.48 - 2.36
This simplifies to:
4x = 4.12
Next, we can divide both sides by 4 to solve for x:
x = 4.12 / 4
This simplifies to:
x = 1.03
Therefore, each bottle of juice costs $1.03.
Solve for x.
X - 2 = -3x + 14
To solve for x in the equation X - 2 = -3x + 14, we can isolate the variable x by performing the necessary steps:
First, let's simplify the equation by combining like terms:
X + 3x = 14 + 2
This simplifies to:
4x = 16
Next, let's divide both sides of the equation by 4:
(4x) / 4 = 16 / 4
This simplifies to:
x = 4
Therefore, the solution for x is 4.
Solve for x.
14x - 5 = 10x + 31
To solve for x in the equation 14x - 5 = 10x + 31, we can isolate the variable x by performing the necessary steps:
First, let's simplify the equation by combining like terms:
14x - 10x = 31 + 5
This simplifies to:
4x = 36
Next, let's divide both sides of the equation by 4:
(4x) / 4 = 36 / 4
This simplifies to:
x = 9
Therefore, the solution for x is 9.
Find the value of b in the diagram below.
b-1
b-1
b-1
b-1
=16
To find the value of b in the given diagram:
Since we have four instances of (b - 1) and their sum is equal to 16, we can write the equation:
4(b - 1) = 16
Let's simplify the equation:
4b - 4 = 16
Next, let's isolate b by adding 4 to both sides of the equation:
4b - 4 + 4 = 16 + 4
Simplifying further:
4b = 20
Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for b:
(4b) / 4 = 20 / 4
This simplifies to:
b = 5
Therefore, the value of b in the given diagram is 5.
Solve for x.
-5(-x - 4) -3x - 5 = 13
To solve for x in the equation -5(-x - 4) - 3x - 5 = 13, we can simplify and isolate the variable x by performing the necessary steps:
First, let's simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
-5(-x - 4) = 5x + 20
Now we can rewrite the equation with the simplified expression:
5x + 20 - 3x - 5 = 13
Next, let's combine like terms:
(5x - 3x) + (20 - 5) = 13
Simplifying further:
2x + 15 = 13
Next, let's isolate the x term by subtracting 15 from both sides:
2x + 15 - 15 = 13 - 15
This simplifies to:
2x = -2
Finally, let's solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
(2x)/2 = (-2)/2
This simplifies to:
x = -1
Therefore, the solution for x is -1.

Equivalent Inequality: h ? Blank
To determine the values that make the inequality -8h < 24 true, we need to select the numbers that satisfy this condition.
When we divide both sides of the inequality by -8, we must remember to flip the inequality sign:
-8h < 24
h > -3
Therefore, the values that make the original inequality -8h < 24 true, and the equivalent inequality h > -3 are:
-2, 0, 2, and 7.
Equivalent Inequality: h > -3
Solve for r and graph the solution on the number line below.
X+3 <with a line under it 7
Answer Attempt 1 out of 3
< > <with a line under it >with a line under it
Inequality Notation:
Number Line:
To solve the inequality x + 3 ≤ 7 for r, subtract 3 from both sides of the inequality:
x + 3 - 3 ≤ 7 - 3
This simplifies to:
x ≤ 4
Therefore, the solution for r is r ≤ 4.
To represent this solution on a number line, we would draw a closed circle at 4 and shade to the left of the circle since the inequality includes the value 4.
The number line would look as follows:
_ _ _ _ O -------->

Number Line:
To solve the inequality -2 > -5 + x, we can isolate the variable a by performing the necessary steps:
First, let's simplify the inequality by combining like terms:
-2 > -5 + x
Next, let's add 5 to both sides of the inequality to isolate x:
-2 + 5 > -5 + x + 5
This simplifies to:
3 > x
Alternatively, we can also write this as x < 3 since the inequality sign is reversed.
Therefore, the solution for a is a < 3.
To represent this solution on a number line, we would draw an open circle at 3 and shade to the left of the circle since the inequality is "less than."
The number line would look as follows:

To determine which of the values -4, 0, and 4 are solutions to the inequality 9 ≤ -7 + 4x, we need to substitute each value into the inequality and check if it is true or false.
Let's check each value one by one:
For -4:
9 ≤ -7 + 4(-4)
9 ≤ -7 - 16
9 ≤ -23
The inequality is false for -4.
For 0:
9 ≤ -7 + 4(0)
9 ≤ -7 + 0
9 ≤ -7
The inequality is false for 0.
For 4:
9 ≤ -7 + 4(4)
9 ≤ -7 + 16
9 ≤ 9
The inequality is true for 4.
Therefore, only the value 4 is a solution to the inequality.
Answer: I only
This is incorrect
I apologize for the mistake. Let's go through the values again and determine which ones are solutions to the inequality:
For -4:
9 ≤ -7 + 4(-4)
9 ≤ -7 - 16
9 ≤ -23
The inequality is false for -4.
For 0:
9 ≤ -7 + 4(0)
9 ≤ -7 + 0
9 ≤ -7
The inequality is false for 0.
For 4:
9 ≤ -7 + 4(4)
9 ≤ -7 + 16
9 ≤ 9
The inequality is true for 4.
Based on this reevaluation, the correct answer is that only the value 4 is a solution to the inequality.
Answer: III only
A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have no more than $465 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $12.50, and tickets cost $33 per person, including tax. Which inequality can be used to determine p, the maximum number of people who can go to the amusement park?
Answer Attempt 1 out of 3
• 12.5p + 33 ≥ 465
O 33p + 12.5 > 465
O 12.5p + 33 ≤ 465
O 33p + 12.5 ≤ 465
To determine the maximum number of people who can go to the amusement park, we need to consider the cost of parking and the cost of tickets.
The cost of parking is $12.50, and the cost of each ticket is $33. The total cost for p people, including parking costs, is given by 12.5p + 33p.
Since they have no more than $465 to spend, we can set up the following inequality:
12.5p + 33p ≤ 465
Thus, the appropriate inequality that can be used to determine the maximum number of people is:
12.5p + 33p ≤ 465
Answer: 12.5p + 33p ≤ 465
