Part 1: Solve the inequality 12 + x <= 2x - 2 and show all of your work. You can use >= to represent the greater than or equal to symbol. Part 2: Use complete sentences to describe the graph of the solution from Part 1
@zzr0ck3r
subtract x from both sides, then add 2 to both sides, then divide by 2 on both sides, then tell me what you got
4<=x @zzr0ck3r
Then for the second one i got x>=2 @zzr0ck3r
12 + x <= 2x - 2 subtract x 12<=x-2 add 2 14<=x
oh i see so whats next
thats it, solve means get x alone on one side.
So now whats the final answer
14<=x
so do you combine the first and second 1 @zzr0ck3r
there is only 1.
show me what you did to get your answer
So for part 1 its 14<=x
@texaschic101 can you help me out
graph it its the x axis with all x>= 14|dw:1372396393446:dw|
So thats the final answer
12 + x <= 2x - 2 12 + 2 <= 2x - x 14 <= x Are you using a number line to graph ? If so, closed circle on 14, shaded to the left
ok thank you
So whats the final answer for part 1
oops...closed circle on 14, shaded to the right. <--the graph The answer to part 1 is : 14 <= x
if it is greater then you shade to the right, if it is less then, you shade to the left. We used a closed circle because an equal sign was involved.
ok
I have told you the answer to part 1 twice now:)
