Solve the inequality: 1 - 2x > 5. Express your answer as solution set.

Solve the inequality: -3 < 2 - 5x < 12. Express the answer as a solution set or a number line.

Write an inequality that describes the graph:

<------(============]----------->
-4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2

Find the slope of the line which contains the points
(4, 2) and (-1, 7).

1. Simplify the following expression: 0.7(x + 1) - (x - 2)

= 0.7x + 0.7 - x + 2
= 0.7x - x + 0.7 + 2
= -0.3x + 2.7

2. Mary loves to skip rope. She makes one skip every 0.04 minute. What is her skipping rate in skips per minute?
1 skip : 0.04 minute
? skip : 1 minute

1 / 0.04
25 skips per minute.

3. Solve for x: 3(x - 4) - 1 = 2x + 5

3x - 12 - 1 = 2x + 5
3x - 2x = 5 + 12 + 1
X = 18

4. Solve for y:
y
--- - 2 = y + 1
5

y - 10 = 5y + 5
y - 5y = 5 + 10
-4y = 15
y = 15/4
y = 3.75

5. Find the dimensions of a rectangle whose length is 50 inches more than its width and whose perimeter is 500 inches.

L = 50 in + W
P = 500 in

P = 2L + 2W
500 = 2 (50 + W) + 2W
500 = 100 + 2W + 2W
500 = 100 + 4W
500 - 100 = 4W
400 = ...
