Question

Given the inequality: m − 11 ≤ 16 or 15 − 2m < −7 Solve for j and graph the solution on a number line. Must show your work to receive full credit. (Equation is the second question in the attached photo)

Answer 1

Answer:

m ≤ 27  or m > 11

m is all real number since we have the or

Step-by-step explanation:

m − 11 ≤ 16 or 15 − 2m < −7

Lets solve the one on the left first

m − 11 ≤ 16

Add 11 to each side

m-11+11 ≤ 16 +11

m ≤ 27

Now lets solve the one on the right

15 − 2m < −7

Subtract 15 from each side

15 −15- 2m < −7 -15

-2m < -22

Divide by -2, remembering to flip the inequality

-2m/-2 > -22/-2

m > 11
