10x-6≥4x-54 Solve and explain each step

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Solve this as if it was an = sign there instead of inequality sign so first add/subtract to get variables on one side and numbers on the others. if you have to divide by negative # the inequality sign changes to the other direction...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the first line I got was 10x≥4x-48 is that correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and then I have to divide 4x? or 10x does it matter which one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are actually subtracting 4x to get it to the other side...divide once you have all variables on one side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it'll be 6x≥-48

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you for the help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes...and you are welcome.
