Question

Find the solution set of the inequality and the number: 12 − 6x > 24 A. , C. ≤, D. ≥, E. =

Answer 1

x < -2

Explanation:

12 − 6x > 24

12 - 12 − 6x > 24 - 12

-6x > 12

-6x/(-6) < 12/(-6)

x < -2

Answer 2

x < -2

Explanation:

12 − 6x > 24

Subtract 12 from each side

12-12 − 6x > 24-12

-6x > 12

Divide each side by -6, remembering to flip the inequality

-6x/-6 < 12/-6

x < -2
