Question

I need help on these 2 questions how did I get it wrong? and for question 3 I'm not supposed to have the = sign so what am I supposed to replace it with?​

Answer 1

Answer:

3.

m + 7 ≥ 20

Subtract 7 on both sides,

m ≥ 20 - 7

m ≥ 13

The answer is m ≥ 13.

( you need to include both > and =, that is ≥ )

4.

2.1x = 23.1

Divide 2.1 on both sides,

x = 23.1 / 2.1

x = 11

Answer 2

Answer:

For problem #3, we are given $m+7\geq 20$ so we would just subtract 7 from both sides to get rid of the 7 on the left and that would end up subtracting 7 from 20 also leaving us with $m\geq 13$.

For problem #4, we are given $2.1x=23.1$ so we would just divide both sides by 2.1 which would get rid of the 2.1 on the left and that would also make us divide 23.1 by 2.1 leaving us with $x=11$.

Hope this helps!  Let me know if you have any questions
