Question

Choose Yes or No to tell whether the Addition Property of Inequality can be used to solve each statement. w – 4 > –10 12 ≥ 20x 7y10 ≤ 5.5 –3.25 < x – 9.75

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality will not be the same if the same amount is added both sides.

The addition property states that if the same quantity is added to both sides, then the inequality still remains true. Take for example:

let x, y, and z be real numbers. It follows that:

if x ≥ y, then x + z ≥ y + z

This holds true for whatever value of z

If x ≤ y, then x + z ≤ y + z

The inequality remains true.
