Answer:
The given set of equation are: x+ (-45) ≤ 35 , x - (-45) ≥ 35
For the given equality to be true, x ≤ 35
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, given the first number = x
Second number = -45
Now, Sum of x and - 45 is at most 35.
⇒ x+ (-45) ≤ 35
Also, The difference of x and -45 is at least 35.
⇒ x - (-45) ≥ 35
Now, simplifying the given set of equations:
x - 45 ≤ 35 ⇒ -x - (-45) > - 35 ( as 3 < 4 ⇒ -3 > -4)
or, -x + 45 > - 35
and second equation is x + 45 ≥ 35
Now, solving both the equations by not taking sign of inequality in to the consideration, we get
x - 45 = 35
x + 45 = 35
Adding both equations,we get: ⇒ 2x = 70
or x = 35
Hence for the given equality to be true, x ≤ 35
