Question

For the equation - 3x + 2 = 8 and the inequality

- 3x + 2 > 8, which x-values indicated below are
solutions of the equation and which are solutions
of the inequality?
A. -3
B. -2
C. -1
D. O

Answer 1

x= -2; x ≥ 2

Explanation:

1. -3x+2=8

Subtract +2 on both sides

-3x+2-2=8-2

-3x=6 Divide by -3 on both sides

-3x/-3=6/-3

x= -2

-2 is the answer for both the equation and inequality.

sorry i was lazy to do the inequality one, but it should be the same answer.

also ignore the fact that theres a line, i could not find the sign without one, o im sorry.
