Question

Solve 3 - x/2 > 15..

Answer 1

Answer:

A. x ≤ 24

Step-by-step explanation:

• $\small \sf \: 3 - \frac{x}{2} ≥ 15$

multiply both side by 2 . Since 2 is the positive the inequality direction remains the same.

• 6 - x ≥ 30

subtract 6 from both sides

• 6 - 6 - x ≥ 30 - 6
• -x ≥ 24

Divide both side by - 1. Since -1 is negative, the inequality direction remains the change.

• x ≤ -24

Answer 2

Answer:

x ≥-24

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - x/2 ≥ 15

Subtract 3 from each side

3-3 - x/2 ≥ 15-3

-x/2 ≥12

Multiply by -2

-x/2 * -2 ≥12 *-2

x ≥-24
