Question

Can someone help me?

How would you solve this?
0.06x+80<0.10x

Answer 1

in a similar way to solving an equation
subtract 0.06x form both sides
to give
80 < 0.04x

now its easy

Answer 2

so 80/0.04
x<2000

Answer 3

no
2000 < x

x > 2000

Answer 4

Oh, why does the symbol switch?

Answer 5

always read the inequality from the 'x' side

Answer 6

if 2000 is less than x
then x is greater than 2000

Answer 7

Okay, thanks soo much! =^.^=

Answer 8

yw - i took 0.06x from both sides to avoid having the negative value in the x term
with an inequality if you divide both sides by a negative value you need to flip the inequality sign

Answer 9

OMG, this sounds soo much easier! Thanks for explaining too. :)

Answer 10
