5x + 3 ≤ 18 and 4 - x < 6 Question: A. Solve the inequalities and show your work. B. Graph the solution to the compound sentence on the number line.

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

@friendzone treat the inequalities as regular equations. the key is to solve for x

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

remember, when you divide by a negative, the sign (greater than or lesser than) will change direction

OpenStudy (just_one_last_goodbye):

@Jamierox4ev3r u got this one?

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

yeah :) I got it

OpenStudy (friendzone):

wait explain sorry @Jamierox4ev3r

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

okay, I'll do the first one for you. What you do is just solve as if it was just a regular equation: 5x+3\(\le\)18 -3 -3 ----------- 5x\(\le\)15 @friendzone can you solve the rest of this inequality from here?

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

Does this make sense to you?

OpenStudy (friendzone):

yeah i got it just checking work thanks

HanAkoSolo (jamierox4ev3r):

oh okay good, glad you understand
