Answer 4

okay let's solve the first one.
x−2>2x+12
Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.
x−2−2x>2x+12−2x
−x−2>12
Step 2: Add 2 to both sides.
−x−2+2>12+2
−x>14
Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.
−x
_____

14
−1
x<−14
Answer:
x<−14

Answer 5

Alright, I think I understand. Thanks!

Answer 6

the second one is 5. 10+8 is 18, 18 divided by 2 is 9 and 9 - 4 is 5

Answer 7

The first one is x<-14 and the second one is 10

Answer 8

Wouldn't you start off with dividing? As PEMDAS puts the functions in order?

Answer 9

@AMYCARTER Did you do PEMDAS??

Answer 10

It would be division first, then addition, and subtraction making it 10

Answer 11

Because you would do
10 + 8 ÷ 2 – 4
8 divided by 2=4
10+4-4
10+4=14
14-4=10
So it would be 10
@CoinBank77 why would you ask the question if you knew the answer??
