x<-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

x-5/2<-5

divide x-5 by 2

1/2x-2.5<-5

factor out the -2.5 by adding it to both sides

1/2x< -2.5

divide both sides by 1/2

x=-1.25

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of red paint to blue paint is always 9/7. that means that, whatever x's value, (4x+12)/(4x-4) has that same ratio. so, set up an equation and cross-multiply to solve for x:

9/7 = (4x+12)/(4x-4)

9(4x-4) = 7(4x+12)

36x - 36 = 28x + 84

8x - 36 = 84

8x = 120

x = 15
