5x - 2 > 13
Make the equation to be
5x - 2 = 13
5x = 13 + 2
5x = 15
x = 15/5
x = 3
To make the original equation true, 5x - 2 > 13,
x must be greater than 3
A. x>3 ===> correct answer

ok, this could be a enormously trouble-free question, you have y=5x+3 and 4x+3y=40 seven. you have a value for y by way of fact know y=5x+3. that is not a very final answer yet you ought to use this on your benefit. in case you replace y in 4x+3y=40 seven with 5x+3 you will get your answer for x. So your new equation would be 4x + 3 *(5x + 3)=40 seven simplify 4x + 15x + 9 = 40 seven 19x + 9 = 40 seven 19x = 38 x = 2 Now you have the respond for x you are able to merely plug it in on your unique equation to get y. So y = 5x + 3 will become y = 5*(2) + 3 simplify y = 10 + 3 y = 13 i'm hoping this helps! that's the least confusing thank you to remedy this project.there is yet in a distinctive way, by utilising subtracting equations to get one variable by utilising itself too, yet this is especially for quadratic equations.

5x - 2 > 13
=> 5x > 13 +2 = 15
=> x > 15/5 = 3

x> 3
=> choice A.

A. x > 3

5x -2 >13
so 5x > 13 + 2 (add 2 to both sides)
and x > 3 (divide both sides by 5).

check the answer if x = 4 then 5x - 2 = 20 - 2 = 18 >13;

5x>15

x>3 so it is A
you only change sign direction when dividing by a negative number!!!
