Question

The sum of three times a number and -4 is at least twice the number plus 8

Answer 1

Answer:

x<=12

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+(-4)<=2x+8

3x-4<=2x+8

3x-2x-4<=8

x-4<=8

x<=8+4

x<=12

Answer 2

Answer:

12 ≤ x

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-4 ≥ 2x+8

3x-3x-4 ≥ 2x-3x+8

-4-8 ≥ -1x+8-8

-12 ≥ -1x

You divide -1 on both sides and get...

12 ≤ x

Because you have to switch the sign around. I hope this helps!!
