What is the solution to the inequality?<br><br> −4(x−6)≤−2x+6
Kipish [7]
-4(x-6) ≤ - 2x+6
-4x-24≤ -2x+6
+2x +2x
-2x-24≤+6
+24 +24
-2x ≤ 30
Divide both sides by -2
and you get....
x ≥ -15
You switch the inequality sign because you're dividing by a negative.
I hope all is well, and you pass! Good luck, rockstar! (:
