What are the solutions of the inequality? Graph the solutions. b – 4 > 4 A. b >0 B. b > –8 C. b < –8 D. b > 8
Is C the correct choice -8-4<4
@Directrix
u there @Directrix
I am here.
Is C the correct choice -8-4<4
b – 4 > 4 b - 4 + 4 > 4 + 4 b + 0 > 8 b > 8
@Yacoub1993 I don't follow your thinking on this: -8-4<4
how did u get the second step b-4+4>4+4
First step: b – 4 > 4 To solve for b, you have to get b alone. So, I added 4 to b - 4 to get just b on the left side. If I add 4 to one side of the inequality, I have to add it to the other side as well. 4 + 4 = 8 Putting that together: First step: b – 4 > 4 b - 4 + 4 > 4 + 4 b > 8
ok got it it is clear now
thank you
You are welcome.
What is the graph of the inequality? d < 2
I AM NOT SURE BUT I THINK IT IS "C"
@Directrix
@Yacoub1993 Why C and not B?
I THOUGHT THE OPEN DOT not sure exactly
The open dot means that the number on which the open dot appears is not part of the solution. In d < 2 (Read as: d is less than 2), 2 is not part of the solution because 2 is NOT less than 2. So, an open dot on 2 is correct. I agree with you on this --> BUT I THINK IT IS "C"
if the dots are dark or closed it means it is included
can u give me an example wit a dot closed? i mean when do with close the dot u get what i mean
Yes, I understand what you are saying. Do this problem: d + 5 ≤ 7. The answer is one of the options you posted here (see attachment).
is the frist choice
wait let me make sure
Solve for d so that you will not have to guess. Okay?
it is the second choice and this time it will be the closed dot
am i doing right
The second choice with the closed dot is correct.
thank you
