no not really

anonymous · Answer

since the inequality is 2x + 4 ≥ 30  then you have to subtract 4 from both sides

anonymous · Answer

what do you get when you do that?

x≥13

anonymous · Answer

not exactly...you subtract 30 and 4 and get 26......on the other side you just subtract 4 and 4..

you then get 2x≥26

do you have any idea what to do next
