Question

Solve the inequality for v. 20 ≥ v - 4 Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 1

Undo the subtraction of 4 by adding 4 to both sides

$20 \ge v - 4$

$20+4 \ge v-4+4$

$24 \ge v$

$v \le 24$

This means v is less than or equal to 24. 
In other words, v can be equal to 24 or it can be smaller than 24

Answer 2

Add a positive 4 to each side of the equation. Your answer will then look like this: 24 is greater than V. So on a chart V, would have a value less or equal to 24.
