without going through all the algebra, look at that left side.. can you tell me if that left side can ever be negative?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no so it'd be no solution?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no, any x value you can think of is a solution...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no matter what x is, that left side will always be bigger than -6... so your answer is all real numbers.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
still with me?
