Question

Drag each number to show whether or not it is a solution to the inequality

Inequality: 4x-12 less than or equal to 24

Answer 1

The solutions are -5,0, and 9.

Explanation:

We have given an inequality.

4x-12 ≤ 24

We have to solve above inequality for x.

Adding 12 to both sides of above equation, we have

4x-12+12 ≤ 24+12

4x ≤ 36

Dividing by 4 to both sides of above equation, we have

x ≤ 36/4

x ≤ 9

Hence, The solutions are -5,0, and 9.

Answer 2

SOLUTIONS:-5,0,9,6

NOT A SOLUTION: 12.5,10

Explanation:

The given inequality is

`4x-12\leq 24`

Group similar terms;

`4x\leq 24+12`

`4x\leq 36`

`x\leq 9`

SOLUTIONS:-5,0,9,6

NOT A SOLUTION: 12.5,10
