Question

25 pints

⦁ Let x = 4.7 and solve both inequalities below. Show your work.
A: × + 6.2 ≥10.9 B: x - 6.2 ≤ - 5


⦁ Look at your answers to question #4. Which inequality is true or false given x = 4.7. Explain your answer.

Answer 1

A is true and B is false !

Answer 2

A is true and B is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 6.2 ≥ 10.9

Replace x for 4.7...

4.7 + 6.2 ≥ 10.9

10. ≥ 10.9 ( So this is true!)

x - 6.2 ≤ - 5

Replace x for 4.7...

4.7 - 6.2 ≤ -5

-1.2 is not ≤ -5 (So this is false!)
