Question

I have an attachment of the question, since it's an image. It's posted below. :)

Answer 1

Subtract 14 from both sides.

Answer 2

But I don't really understand how you could do that to the left side...

Answer 3

ok let me try and explain

Answer 4

just bring the numbers to the other side

Answer 5

when bringing a positive number to the other side it turns into negative

Answer 6

Ok. Thanks. But it's like a whole other equation on the left side. How do I subtract 14 from it?

Answer 7

no my way of explaining is different mertsj

Answer 8

Oh. Lol. Sorry. I got you guys confused with each other.

Answer 9

ok let me start again

Answer 10

so the inequality is

\[14 + x \le 3\]

Answer 11

now we always leave x where it is and move the numbers to the other side

Answer 12

Which numbers?

Answer 13

when moving a positive number to the other side it will give me a negative number
e.g +4 moved to the other side will give me -4

Answer 14

sorry the number that is on the same side as x
we move to the other side so we have x by itself

Answer 15

so what we will get is

Answer 16

\[x \le 3 - 14\] OOPS instead of 4 i meant 14

Answer 17

Lol. it's ok. I understand. Is that the answer? Or is there more steps?

Answer 18

so anyways that is what the inequality will look like after moving +14 to the other side
giving you -14

Answer 19

well thats it now you just do 3 -14 and thats your answer

Answer 20

Isn't that like -11? I'm not good with negatives... -_-

Answer 21

\[x \le -11\]

Answer 22

yes correct

Answer 23

Yes! I got it! Lol.

Answer 24

with negative numbers you can look at it two ways either

3 - 14

or -14 + 3

Answer 25

Ok. So like the second one is easier for me to think in my head. Lol.
