Question

Solve the inequality. x/3 + 4 < 6

Answer 1

• x/3 + 4 < 6

Transpose 4 to the RHS and make it to negative.

• or, x/3 < 6 - 4

Subtract 4 from 6, we get 2.

• or, x/3 < 2

Now, multiply both sides with 3.

• or, x/3 × 3 < 2 × 3

In the LHS, 3 and 3 will get cancelled out and in the RHS, it will be 6.

• or, x < 6

Answer:

x < 6
