Help please - Which of the following is not a way to represent the solution of the inequality 3(2x − 1) greater than or equal to 4(2x − 3) − 3? Answers: x less than or greater to 6 6 greater than or equal to x A number line with a closed circle on 6 and shading to the left. A number line with a closed circle on 6 and shading to the right.

OpenStudy (nubeer):

\[3(2x-1)\ge 4(2x-3)-3\] you have to first apply distributive property and solve for x

OpenStudy (nubeer):

can you do that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yea i'll try so basically im guessing the answer narrows down to : A number line with a closed circle on 6 and shading to the left. A number line with a closed circle on 6 and shading to the right. ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think the answer is c shading to the left.

OpenStudy (nubeer):

you would probably get x less then equal to 6 , so lets try putting this on a number line.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright.

OpenStudy (nubeer):

less then equal to means a closed circle.

OpenStudy (nubeer):

|dw:1371232170398:dw| says x is less then 6.. so which side have numbers less then 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the left :) So the answer is A number line with a closed circle on 6 and shading to the left.?

OpenStudy (nubeer):

yes :)
