Hi Anna,

Question:

What is the justification for each step in solving the inequality?

−2(x+1)≥3x+8

Select from the drop-down menus to correctly justify each step.

Solution:

−2x − 2 ≥ 3x + 8

Subtract 3x from both sides.

−2x − 2 − 3x ≥ 3x + 8 − 3x

−5x − 2 ≥ 8

Add 2 to both sides.

−5x − 2 + 2 ≥ 8 + 2

−5x ≥ 10

Divide both sides by -5

x = -2

Answer:

The only step she needs to fix is option C instead of being −2x ≥ 3x + 10 it should be  −2x − 2 − 3x ≥ 3x + 8 − 3x  then −5x − 2 + 2 ≥ 8 + 2 then divide both sides by 5. She needs to add those three steps.

HELLO  ANNA!!

Given inequality
=> −2(x+1)≥3x+8
=>
- 2x - 2 \geqslant 3x + 8 \\ \\ add \: 2 \: in \: both \: sides \\ \\ - 2x \geqslant 3x + 10 \\ \\ subtract \: with \: - 3x \: in \: both \: sides \: \\ \\ - 5x \geqslant 10 \\

now multiply with - on both sides.

As we know now sign will change
=> 5x >_ -10

Now divide by 5 on both sides
=> x >_ -2

What is the value of x?
SSSSS [86.1K]
All angles in a triangle add up to 180

180 = 9 + 15 + 2x - 1 + 3x

180 = 24 - 1 + 2x + 3x

180 = 23 + 5x

180 - 23 = 5x

157 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

X = 31.4 or 157/5

Explain what can happen if you line up the digits incorrectly when you rewrite additional problem
Natasha_Volkova [10]
So basiclly you will end up getting the wrong answer. For example 234+23.
If you lined it up incorrectly you might get 464. It is actually 257. This is wy you should line it up correctly.
