Answer:

The correct option is Option A: Yes, that is the correct step

Explanation:

Wane was asked to solve the inequality
\large (x)/(3)\ge11

He decides that he needs to multiply both sides by 3.

We need to tell if the step is correct?

So, solving the inequality


(x)/(3)\ge11

We need to multiply both sides by 3, to get value of x i.e.


(x)/(3)*3\ge11*3\\x\geq 33

So, Wanes step is correct.

The correct option is Option A: Yes, that is the correct step
