Question

Solve each inequality. Graph the solution on a on a number line.
p-7/12>3/10

Answer 1

so to solve an inequality you just treat the inequaltity sign like an equals sign except if you multiply by negative 1 you flip the direction of the sign.

p-7/12>3/10

add 7/12 to both sides

p>7/12+3/10

p>35/60+18/60

p>53/60

so if you had to graph this on a number line you would have an open circle on 53/60 and an arrow coming off pointing to the right

Explanation:

Answer 2

A graph of the solution set of this inequality p - 7/12 > 3/10 is shown on the number line below.

In Mathematics, an inequality is a relation that compares two or more numerical data and variables in an algebraic equation based on any of the following inequality symbols:

• Less than or equal to (≤).
• Greater than (>).
• Greater than or equal to (≥).
• Less than (<).

Based on the information provided, we can logically deduce that solution set is given by;

p - 7/12 > 3/10

p > 3/10 + 7/12

p > (18 + 35)/60

p > 53/60

Therefore, the solution set is p > 53/60.
