I would really appreciate it if someone were to help me. Solve the compound inequality. 4x+15 ≥ -9 and 8x-6≤34

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

@Directrix Would you please help me?

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

X≥6 and x≤ 4 X≥-6 and x≤-5 X≥-6 and x≤5 X≥6 and x≤5

Directrix (directrix):

4x+15 ≥ -9 and 8x-6≤34 ^^^^^ Are these not the correct ones for the problem?

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

i deleted the wrong ones already. those are the correct ones

Directrix (directrix):

Solve each of these for x. I'll do the first one. 4x+15 ≥ -9 -15 -15 -------------- 4x ≥ -24 x ≥ -6 --> My half of the answer.

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

Okay, i will try

Directrix (directrix):

Your Turn: 8x -6 ≤ 34 Start by adding 6 to both sides of the equation.

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

8x ≤40 so its 5

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

So its the third one then?

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

X≥-6 and x≤5

Directrix (directrix):

8x ≤40 x ≤ 5 Don't lose the variable.

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

oh ya

Directrix (directrix):

X≥-6 and x≤5 correct for final answer

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

Thanks!

Directrix (directrix):

You are welcome.

OpenStudy (nicholausblackmon):

do you mind if i ask another question?

Directrix (directrix):

Post it in a new thread, okay?
