Hint: isolate x in each inequality
OpenStudy (cedric):
ok let me try that
OpenStudy (cedric):
well from what i thin i know the answer would be C because it has the x on one side right?
OpenStudy (cedric):
??

first, look at the inequality sign. Is it filled in? which way is the graph pointing?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the line on the graph starts off with a filled in point, meaning it is less than/or equal to. Then it is going to the right. which means x is going to be greater than.

Do you need anymore help? or have you left?

alright, now you can simplify. This is the easiest way to find out the answer. Which answer do you want to practice simplifying on?
OpenStudy (cedric):
well now that youve said that i believe the answer is A
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A's inequality sign is less than. The point would not be filled in and pointing to the left.
OpenStudy (cedric):
ok and you said it be greater then
OpenStudy (anonymous):
let's do C.

-2x + 7 ≤ 13
-7 -7
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what would it look like after subtracting?
OpenStudy (cedric):
uhm like this..
OpenStudy (cedric):
-2x + 0 ≤ 6

then i think you divide by 2?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
divide by -2, which would cause you to flip the sign
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x≥3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-3, excuse me
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and that should be it, if you read the graph correctly.
