Question

5x−4≥12 OR 12x+5≤−4 please answer asap and right and explain like im 5 how to solve OR problems ill give brainliest and a lot of points

Answer 1

Answer: x>_3.2 OR x<_ -0.75

Step-by-step explanation: first break down your compound inequality. 5x-4>_12

You first cancel out your constants by adding 4 to both sides. Now you’re left with 5x>_16 then to cancel five you have to divide on both sides by five which equals to 3.2. Then, x>_ 3.2.

Next you do your second part, 12x+5<_-4

So first cancel out the constant of 5 by subtracting 5 on both sides, making the equation 12x<_-9. Now, you divide by 12 on both sides, making it -9/12. Which effectively is -0.75. Therefor, the answer being x<_ -0.75. Add the two together x>_3.2 OR x<_0.75
