Question

Solve the equation -x/6greaterthanequalto3

Answer 1

Answer (depending if the fraction is positive or negative):

1. x ≥ 18
2. x ≤ -18

Step-by-step explanation:

If the fraction is positive:

1. Write it out: $\frac{x}{6} \geq 3$  
2. Multiply each side by 6 to cancel out the 6 under x. It should now look like this: x ≥ 18

If the fraction is negative:

1. Write it out: $-\frac{x}{6} \geq 3$  
2. Multiply each side by -6 to cancel out the -6 under x. It should now look like this: x ≤ -18

I hope this helps!
