The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. Lemon juice is said to have a pH of less than 4 and greater than 1.5.
castortr0y [4]

Let's say x is J because it's Lemon Juice.

It's said that the pH of J is less than 4 so: pH(J) < 4 and pH(J) is greater than 1.5 so: pH(J) > 1.5

Now we can construct:

1.5 < pH(J) \wedge pH(J) < 4

Or simply:

1.5 < pH(J) < 4

We can also write this with an interval:

pH(J)\in(1.5, 4)

Hope this helps.

In a certain month, Oscar sells 6 cars more than Jackie. If together they sell 30 cars, how many cars did Jackie sell?
diamong [38]

Answer:

Jackie sold 12 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call the number of cars Oscar sold O, and the number of cars Jackie sold J, we can say the following:

O = J + 6

As Oscar sold 6 cars more than Jackie.

Together, they sold 30 cars.

O + J = 30

Since we know that:

O = J + 6

... we can put this into our previous equation.

O + J = 30

(J + 6) + J = 30

J + J + 6 = 30

2 * J + 6 = 30

Subtract 6 from both sides:

2 * J = 24

Divide both sides by 2:

J = 24 / 2

J = 12

Jackie sold 12 cars.
