Two inequalities:
x > 5 (should be greater than 5 feet)
x < 30 (should be smaller than 30 feet)
One compound inequality: (more convenient inequality)
5 < x < 30
You would mark 2 on the number line (open circle) and draw the rest of the line going < that way.
- 12 + x ≥ 3 (x - 6)
- or, 12 + x ≥ 3x - 18
- or, 12 + 18 ≥ 3x - x
- or, 30 ≥ 2x
- or, 30/2 ≥ x
- or, 15 ≥ x
- or, x ≤ 15

<em><u>x </u></em><em><u>≤</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u>5</u></em>
Hope you could get an idea from here.
