Answer
11) a > 3
12) b > (2/3)
Step-by-step explanation
11) a - 15 > -4 (-6 + 3a)
a - 15 > 24 - 12a
a + 12a > 24 + 15
13a > 39
Divide both sides by 13
(13a/13) > (39/13)
a > 3
In graphing inequality equations, the first thing to note is that whenever the equation to be graphed has (< or >), the circle at the beginning of the arrow is usually unshaded.
But whenever the inequality has either (≤ or ≥), the circle at the beginning of the arrow will be shaded.
Then, the direction of the graph depends on the direction of the inequality sign, for example, the answer here says a is greater than 3. So, the graph will start with an unshaded circle and cover the numbers greater than 3.
12) 3 (6b - 2) > (8 - 3b)
18b - 6 > 8 - 3b
18b + 3b > 8 + 6
21b > 14
Divide both sides by 21
(21b/21) > (14/21)
b > (2/3)
This answer is similar to that of number 11. For the graph, it will start with an unshaded circle and move towards the numbers greater than (2/3)
Hope this Helps!!!
