-6x + 11 -9x + 2

OpenStudy (jim766):

what do the directions say to do?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ITS A < BEFORE THE NINE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve for x.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok sounds easy

OpenStudy (jim766):

solve it like an equation.... get the x alone by adding 9x to bth sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6x + 11 what do u think comes first it like the others we did

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idkaaaaaaay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

srry its -6x + 11 -9x + 2 add 9 +9 +9

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it then kinda transforms into 3x + 11 = 2 -11 -11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok its confusin me nahhhhhh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but think of the equal signs as <

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 3x = -9 then divide 3 x = -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just so it isnt confusin ill fix it though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but is it -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6x + 11 < -9x + 2 +9 +9 3x + 11 = 2 -11 -11 so 3x = -9 ------ 3 3 so X = -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx
