Question

What is –5 + 2n >= –11 or –6 – 10n > 44

Answer 1

Your answer do be A

Explanation:

Answer 2

n < -5 or n > -3

Explanation:

–5 + 2n >= –11 or –6 – 10n > 44

Solving the left one first

–5 + 2n >= -11

Add 5 to each side

–5+5 + 2n >= –11 +5

2n > -6

Divide by 2

2n/2 >-6/2

n > -3

Now solve the one on the right

–6 – 10n > 44

Add 6 to each side

–6+6 – 10n > 44+6

-10n> 50

Divide by -10. Remember to flip the inequality

-10n/-10 < 50/-10

n < -5

n < -5 or n > -3
