Wen you write in standard form, that means you're writing it in number form. For example, instead of writing "eighty-two", you'll write "82". ;-)
The given inequality is:
-5c + 2 ≤ 27
Subtracting 2 from both sides, we get:
-5c + 2 - 2 ≤ 27 - 2
-5x ≤ 25
Dividing by 5 on both sides we get:
- x ≤ 5
Multiplying by -1 we get:
x ≥ 5
Remember that multiplying or dividing by a negative number changes the direction of inequality symbol.
From the given options, the second graph correctly represents this solution.
Justify "<span>x2 = 25 is {±5}"
First, please write x^2, not x2.
</span><span>x^2 = 25; solve for x. Take the sqrt of both sides. Must write "plus or minus " in front of the sqrt of 25:
x^2 = 25 becomes x = plus or minus 5, so x: {-5, 5}</span>
