Question

Help! Will give brainly! Explain why the value x=4 is not a solution to the inequality 2x>10

Answer 1

Answer

8 is not greater than 10

Step-by-step explanation:

2x>10

2(4)>10

8<10

x=4 can not be the solution to this equation because 8 is less than 10

*just as a side note think of the > sign as an alligator, the mouth always is open towards the larger number

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me show you what happens if X=4

2X>10

2x4 > 10

8 > 10

see 8 is not larger than 10

so you would have to make X = a larger number

for example it could be 6

2X > 10

2x6 > 10

12 > 10

see that works
