The hole for a bird feeder post is 3 feet deep, the top of the post needs to be at least 5 feet above the ground. Identify an inequality that represents the required length of the post.

8 feet

Let d be the distance the poles above the ground. Then d >5. The total length of the pole is d + 3 since The pogues 3 ft into the ground. Adding 3 on both sides of d>5 then give d +3>8 so the length of the post is at least 3 ft

no, the equation would be invalid since they are both not equal.

step-by-step explanation:

here you got

4y-6+4y 2-9

first, you would simplify the equation on the form.

4y-6+4y 2-9

then, move all the terms that contains a y to the left and all the other terms to the right.

+4y-4y+-9-6

finally, you will simplify the left and the right side of the equation.

y=-3
