Question

Write and solve an inequality that means a number plus six is less than or equal to twenty-four.​

Answer 1

No be n

• n+6≤24

Solve

• n≤24-6
• n≤18

Solution set

• (-oo,18]

Answer 2

Inequality: x + 6 ≤ 24

Solution: x ≤ 18

Explanation:

Plus: "+" → to add something to something else

Less than or equal to: "≤" → the expression on the left side of the inequality sign is smaller than the expression on the right side of the sign.

Let x be the unknown number.

A number plus 6 is less than or equal to twenty-four:

x + 6 ≤ 24

To solve the found inequality, subtract 6 from both sides:

⇒ x + 6 - 6 ≤ 24 - 6

⇒ x ≤ 18

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x ≤ 18. The unknown number x can be any real number equal to or less than 18.
