10x-10-7x is greater than or equal to 3x-2
first of all simplify : \(10x-10-7x\) we can write : 10x-10-7x as 10x-7x-10 .
Can you tell me that what is 10x-7x-10 ?
It would be 3x-10
excellent! So now, we have : \(3x-10 \ge 3x-2 \) Correct?
Yeah I got that far
so now, 3x and 3x will be canceled out, do you know why?.
Both would be a positive to each side
Sorry negative
like this : \(3x - 10 \ge 3x - 2\) \(\implies 3x-10-3x \ge 3x-3x-2 = -10 \ge -2 \) What I did was : Just subtracted 3x both sides.
OK?
Ok
so can you tell me, is -10 equal or greater to -2 ?
Hey, wait! can I have exact question please, are any options given?
-10 is less than or equal to -2
Answers are X >= -8 X<= 8 All real numbers No solution
this first one is 3x-10, so 3x-10<3x-2, for example, then x=0,we can get -10<-2 is true right?
