"less than or greater " ??? what does that mean ?

anonymous · Answer

Sorry, it's a typo. It's actually 'Less than or equal to"

hartnn · Answer

$\large 2(x-2) \le 2$
can you isolate 'x' from here ?

hartnn · Answer

you can start by dividing 2 on both sides.

anonymous · Answer

I don't know how to do that type.

anonymous · Answer

Oh, okay

anonymous · Answer

Wait, @hartnn How would I divide that?

hartnn · Answer

$\large 2(x-2) \le 2 \implies \large (x-2) \le 1$

hartnn · Answer

now just add 2 on both sides.

anonymous · Answer

x-4 <= 3?

hartnn · Answer

if you add 2 to 
x-2
you get x-2+2 =x only

anonymous · Answer

oh okay
