Question

Solve 3x - 4 ≤ 2 or 2x + 11 ≥ -1.


{x | x ≤ 2}
{x | -6 ≤ x ≤ 2}
{all reals}

Answer 1

Start by solving each inequality. Can you do that?

Answer 2

if i did i wouldnt be here aasking for help
help me :(

Answer 3

I'll start it for you
3x - 4 ≤ 2
3x ≤ 6

x ≤ ?

2x + 11 ≥ -1
2x ≥ -12
x ≥ ?

can you complete these ?

Answer 4

?=2

Answer 5

Don't take this the wrong way.

You are trying to solve a compound inequality. That is two inequalities linked by the word "or."
I'm trying to figure out if you need help with the fact that it is a compound inequality, or if you need help with just each inequality. The only way I can determine what kind of help you need is by asking.

Answer 6

so it would be the first one?

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

thank you cwrw238

Answer 9

x ≤ 2 is correct for the first one

Answer 10

Start with the first inequality:

3x - 4 ≤ 2
Add 4 to both sides:
3x ≤ 6
Divide both sides by 3:
x ≤ 2

Now we work on the second inequality:

2x + 11 ≥ -1
Subtract 11 from both sides:
2x ≥ -12
Divide both sides by 2:
x ≥ -6

Now you need to think about this result.
If x ≤ 2 OR x ≥ -6, then all values of x are ok.
The answer is C {all reals}.

Answer 11

do you follow that ok?

Answer 12

do you understand why all values of x fit the 2 inequalities

Answer 13

drawing a number line should help
