Question

Solve the inequality.

k + 4 – 2(k – 12) > 0




k > 28


k > –20


k < –20


k < 28

Answer 1

k<28

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−k+28>0

Step 2: Subtract 28 from both sides.

−k+28−28>0−28

−k>−28

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

−k /−1 > −28 /−1

k<28

Answer 2

k < 28

Explanation:

Given inequality :-

• k + 4 - 2( k - 12 ) > 0
• k + 4 - 2k + 24 > 0
• -k + 28 > 0
• 28 > k
• k < 28

Last Option is correct .
