Answer:
The required inequality is: 12 ≤ 3x < 21
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given: three times a number is greater than or equal to 12 and less than 21
We need to answer following questions:
1) The inequality translated in numerical form
Let number = x
12 ≤ 3x < 21
2) Your work solving the inequality
We need to find value of x. Divide the inequality by x
4 ≤ x < 7
3) The solution graphed on a number line
It is shown in figure attached.
4) The solution in set notation
The set notation is: Considering x belongs to natural numbers N
{∀ x|x∈N, 4 ≤ x < 7}
5) The solution in interval notation
The interval notation is: [4,7)
because we have 4 less than equal to x and x is less than 7
1) -3x -3 -7x = 17
• start by grouping so add -3x and -7x which gives you -10x
• 10x -3 (+3) = 17 +3 = 20 add 3 on both sides)
• 10x (/10) = 20/ 10 = 2
1) x = 2
2) 10x -6 (+6) = 24 + 6 = 30
• 10x (/10) = 30/ 10 = 3
2) x = 3
3) -4 (+4) -5x = -39 +4 = -35
• -5x (/-5) = -35/ -5 = 7
3) x = 7
4) 3x - 5 > 10
this one i don’t understand, is there a typo maybe ?
5) -5x + x + 16 = -3 you can put a 1 to hold the place of x to make it 1x
• (-5x + 1x) + 16 = -3
• -4x + 16 (-16) = -3 -16 = -19
• -4x (/-4) = -19/ -4 = 4.75 or 4 3/4
5) x = 4.75
