What is a correct first step in solving the inequality –4(3 – 5x)≥ –6x + 9?

the first step is to distribute the -4 to (3-5x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property.

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3-5x) ≥ -6x + 9 (given)

-12 + 20x ≥ -6x + 9 (distribute)

26x ≥ 21 ( addition property of inequality)

x ≥ 1.24 ( division)

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
