Question

Given the inequality -6 (1 + 2x) ≥ 6 (2x - 1) + 2, which of the following are included in the solution? Select ALL that apply.

Ps. I chose just the answer 0 and only received a 1/3

Answer 1

A, C, E

Explanation:

You want the values from the list that are included in the solution set of -6(1 + 2x) ≥ 6(2x - 1) + 2x.

Solution

Simplifying the inequality, we get ...

-6 -12x ≥ 12x -6 +2x

0 ≥ 26x . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 12x+6

x ≤ 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 26

The solution set includes 0 (choice C) and all negative values (choices A and E).
