Solution: 3x - 7 > 2x + 5 → 3x - 2x > 5 + 7 → x > 12
Solution: Let opposite=3k, adjacent=4k Hypotenuse = √[(3k)² + (4k)²] = √(9k²+16k²) = 5k
x₁ = (5+3)/4 = 8/4 = 2 x₂ = (5-3)/4 = 2/4 = 1/2

sinθ = opposite/hyp = 3k/5k = 3/5 cosθ = adjacent/hyp = 4k/5k = 4/5 5.1 Quadratic Formula For ax² + bx + c = 0 (a≠0): x = [-b ± √(b² - 4ac)] / (2a)
Solution: a=2, b=-5, c=2 Δ = (-5)² - 4×2×2 = 25 - 16 = 9 x = [5 ± √9] / (4) = [5 ± 3]/4
