12. B


X- 10 < 6-5x


So I brought over the five x to be on the side where the x is and then I placed the others on the other side so…


5x + x < 6 + 10

6x < 16

Then I divided both sides by 6

Answer:

12) B --> x < 8/3

13) B --> x ≤ 1/6

Explanation:

12) Solving inequalities is just like solving normal equations where you and add, subtract, multiply and divide sides by the same value. Keep in mind dividing or multiplying by a negative flips the sign:

x - 10 < 6 - 5x

Add 5x to both sides to combine the x terms:

x - 10 < 6 - 5x

+5x +5x

6x - 10 < 6

Add 10 to both sides to isolate the x term:

6x - 10 < 6

+10 +10

6x < 16

Now, divide by 6 on both sides:

x < 8/3, this is B

13) Simplify 2 - 4:

2-3(2x + 1) ≤ 6x(-2)

Distribute:

2 - 6x - 3 ≤ -12x

Add 12x to both sides and combine like terms:

6x - 1 ≤ 0

Add 1 to both sides:

6x ≤ 1

Divide by 6:

x ≤ 1/6, this is B
