Question

1200+0.075x>=3300 what is the solution to the inequality

Answer 1

Solving inequalities is just like solving any other Algebraic problem...look to P.E.M.D.A.S. (Parenthesis, Exponents, Division, Addition, Subtraction). So lets take a look at this problem now.

1200 + 0.075x
`\geq`3300


Subtract 1200 from both sides...
0.075x
`\geq`2100

Now divide by 0.075...
x
`\geq`28000


NOTE: If you divide or multiple by a negative number while solving inequalities, you must flip the sign. Ex: You answer would be x
`\leq`28000 if you would've multiplied or divided by a negative.
