Eduardo solved the following inequality, and his work is shown below: −5(x + 4) + 21 ≥ −3 + 4(x − 8)
−5x − 20 + 21 ≥ −3 + 4x − 32
−5x + 1 ≥ 4x − 35
−9x ≥ −36
x ≥ 4
HELP ME WIT THIS PLS:
What mistake did Eduardo make in solving the inequality? (2 points)

A. When dividing by −9, he did not change the ≥ to ≤.
B. He subtracted 4x from both sides when he should have added 5x.
C. He subtracted 1 from both sides when he should have added 36.
D. He did not make a mistake.

step-by-step explanation:

let f (x ) is a function and c be a positive real number,   the graph of the function g (x ) = f (cx ) is represented as follows.

when, c > 1,   the function compresses it in the x - direction.

when, 0 < c < 1, the function stretches it.

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2.

the heighest power of x in g ( x ) = (9x )2 is 2, so the parent function is square function.

the equation of parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

the function is g ( x ) = (9x )2 and the parent function is f ( x ) = x 2 .

so, the functions f and g have the following relationship.

g ( x ) = f ( 9x ).

compare the function g ( x ) = f ( 9x ) with g (x ) = f (cx ).

c = 9 ( > 1 ).

so, the function g (x ) = (9x )2 compresses it in the x - direction.
