Question

The inequality Six times a number x is at least −24.

Answer 1

`6x\geq -24`

Explanation:

The given statement is

"The inequality six times a number
`x` is at least
`-24`"

"Six times" represents the product between six and a variable.

"At least" represents the sign
`\geq`, which means that the minimum value possible is -24.

So, this statement can be represented as

`6x\geq -24`

If you want two find the solution set for
`x`, you just have to isolate it, as follows

`6x\geq -24\\x \geq (-24)/(6)\\x\geq -4`

Therefore, the solution for the inequality is a set that comprehend -4 and all numbers more then -4.

Answer 2

6x ≥ -24

x ≥ -4

Explanation:

the inequality of Six times a number x is at least −24

6x ≥ -24

Divide each side by 6

6x/6 ≥ -24/6

x ≥ -4
