Question

Determine the largest integer value of xx in the solution of the following inequality.
`2x-2\leq 11`

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

Add 2 to both sides, then divide both sides by 2.

`2x \leq 13 \\x \leq 13/2`

x is less than or equal to 13/2, So the largest value is 13/2, or 6.5. Meaning the largest integer value is 6
