OpenStudy (majesty69):

Is there an option for the graph because then I can give you an answer

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

no just that and the answers are number lines so i cant post them

OpenStudy (majesty69):

Okay well first can you simplify it?

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

im new to all this can you explain it or no?

OpenStudy (majesty69):

Yes I can. So first you need to combine like terms. The -2 and the -6

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

so -8?

OpenStudy (majesty69):

well you would ADD the -2 (you do the opposite of the sign) to the -6

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

i did add it though

OpenStudy (majesty69):

what is -6 + 2?

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

-8

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

oh wait

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

-4

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

sooo.. hold on let me think this trough

OpenStudy (majesty69):

Yes! So now the equation looks like this: \[2m \le-4\]

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

\[-4m \le-2\]

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

oh

OpenStudy (majesty69):

Now you just simplify by dividing -4 by 2...what do you get?

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

-2

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

sorry my computer old it slow

OpenStudy (majesty69):

yes...it looks like this \[m \le-2\]

OpenStudy (majesty69):

Now do you have to graph it?

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):

OpenStudy (majesty69):

Thanks if you need any more help just let me know :)

OpenStudy (minecraft40952):
