Solve the linear inequality 8-7/6x >9 -
8-(7/6)x > 9?
multiply both sides of the inequality by 6
-(7/6)x>1 x< -6/7
Okay! Thanks so much guys. I'll let you all know if I get confused.
Confused!
I am multiply 6 by 8-7 and 9?
the 6 will cancel out on the left side
Yes, I got that far. Next I multiplied 6 by 9 and got 54
ya thats correct
Is that all? There aren't anymore steps to this equation?
8-7
did i write the equation corectly up at the top?
think you did but my mind is trying to rush through the equation cause they are all due in 30 minutes.
\[8-\frac{ 7 }{ 6 }x>9\]
?
> -
otherwise you are correct
subtract 8 from both sides and you are left with \[-\frac{ 7 }{ 6 }x>1\] then multiply both sides by the recipicle of -7/6 \[-\frac{ 6 }{ 7 }*-\frac{ 7 }{ 6 }x \le -\frac{ 6 }{ 7 }\]
we flip the sign when deviding with a negative or multiplyingso we are now left with \[x \le -\frac{ 6 }{ 7 }\]
Okay. thank you!
