Question

10th grade algebra help 5 questions check my 3 answers to see if I'm correct?

Answer 1

1. x – 3 > –9 My answer: x >12
2. –2x + 1 ≤ –11 My answer: x >6
3. 10 < –3x + 1 My answer x >5
4. 2(x + 5) > 8x – 8 My answer is: Not sure
5. –2(x – 3) ≥ 5 – (x + 3) My answer is: Not sure

Answer 2

am i correct on the first 3? and how do i do the last 2? im confused

Answer 3

the first one is -12 i think...the other two are correct i think

Answer 4

\[x-3>-9\]
\[x>-9+3\]
\[x>-6\]

Answer 5

\[10 < –3x + 1 \]subtract 1 from both sides
\[9<-3x\] divide both sides by \(-3\) and change the sense of the inequality\[-3>x\]

Answer 6

satellite73 can you come help me when your done

Answer 7

my question is the one below this

Answer 8

\[2(x + 5) > 8x – 8\] distributive on the left
\[2x+10>8x-8\] subtract \(2x\) from both sides \[10>6x-8\] add 8 to both sides
\[18>6x\] divide both sides by 6\[3>x\]

Answer 9

1. x - 3 > - 9
x > -9 + 3
x > - 6
2. - 2x + 1 <= - 11
-2x <= - 11 - 1
-2x <= -12
x >= -12/-2 (the sign flips when dividing by a negative)
x >= 6
3. 10 < -3x + 1
10 - 1 < - 3x
9 < - 3x
9/-3 > x
-3 > x
4. 2(x + 5) > 8x - 8
2x + 10 > 8x - 8
10 + 8 > 8x - 2x
18 > 6x
3 > x
5. -2(x - 3) >= 5 - (x + 3)
-2x + 6 >= 5 -x - 3
6 - 5 + 3 >= -x + 2x
4 >= x
