@jim_thompson5910 plz help

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

@goopyfish908 can you post your steps on how you solved each one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant post my steps... but i solved half of them on my last question

OpenStudy (thebossofme191):

Well sry I'm no use here lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats ok

OpenStudy (thebossofme191):

Bye

OpenStudy (anonymous):

bye

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok I'm looking at your last question @goopyfish908 do you see how @Kkutie7 went from \[\Large \frac{x}{-2}-8\le-2\] to \[\Large x\ge-12\] ???

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

step 1. we need x by itself step 2. multiply -2 throughout the equation. step 3. ??????????? step 4. ??????????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, sur

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

how would you graph \[\Large x\ge-12\] on a number line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know how to write it out on here, but yes sur

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

you could draw it out using the draw button???

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you can describe it using words would you have an open circle? or closed circle? where would this circle be? would you shade to the left? or to the right?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

drawing it out works as well

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

like draw on microsoft paint or some paint program and then attach the file to here so we can see the number line...that can work as well :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. hang on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this?

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

close but since we have a \[ \huge \geq\] sign it means closed circle.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

here's a good example showing all the possibilities http://www.mathwarehouse.com/number-lines/inequality-pictures/number-line-inequality-graph-example1.png notice the > means shade to the right if you have an under line under the >, then the endpoint is a closed circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh, i thought it was the oposite

OpenStudy (usukidoll):

\[\huge > < \] means open circle \[\huge \geq \leq \] means close circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok
