Question

Determine the smallest integer value of x in the solution of the following inequality.

3x +4> -18

Answer 1

`x> -7(1)/(3)`

Explanation:

3x+4> -18

1. We need to get rid of +4 by minusing 4 from both sides.

3x>-22

2. Isolate x by dividing both sides by 3

x>-22/3

3. -22/3 can be turned into a mixed number

The answer is
`x> -7(1)/(3)`

Hope this helps :)

Have a nice day!

Answer 2

`x>(-22)/(3)`

Explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

3x+4>−18

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides.

3x+4−4>−18−4

3x>−22

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.
