Question

Explain the steps of graphing 2x + 4≤ 12.

Answer 1

Explanation:

First, you want to simplify so the equation would be x+2≤6 or x≤4

Because you are solving for x you want to graph a vertical line on 4.

Then you shade on the left side of the line because it is less than or equal to. If it were just less then you would do a dashed line on 4 but because it is also equal to 4 then you keep it a solid line.

I recommend using Desmos graphing calculator.
