find the solution of the inequality -27< 3 - 6x < 3 - graph the inequality and write the solution set this is a line graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the first less than sign is less than or equal to

OpenStudy (espex):

Isolate 'x', keeping in mind that when you move something from the middle you will need to apply it on both sides of your inequality and when you divide by a negative you must switch the direction of your inequalities.

Yeah bring -3 to both sides and divide both sides by -6. Ooh the signs are going to flip in this problem!!!

Hi :) Well to simplify and make things easier, we get: -27 < 3 - 6x < 3 By subtracting 3 from all sides, -30 < - 6x < 0 Multiply by -1: 30 > 6x > 0 Divide by 6: 5 > x > 0 There you go :)

Note that you need to flip the "<" sign to ">" when you multiply by a negative number :) have a nice day :)

jones you are the best :D

xD hope you understood that :)

how do i graph it though

im suposed to put it on a line graph and get the solution sets

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You would have to graph on a number line.
