Hey there!
We can solve inequalities just like equations. There is only one difference though. If you ever multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you "flip" the inequality sign.
First, let's undo the parentheses.
2x-24+24<4x+20
We simplify.
2x<4x+20
We subtract 4x from both sides.
-2x<20
We divide both sides by -2 (we will need to flip the inequality sign).
x>-10
I hope this helps!
Mmmmm no i just need pints
Answer:
<em>The threatest whole number in the interval is 2</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Numbers and intervals</u>
We are given the interval of numbers between -16 and 2. Since it's not specified, both endpoints of the interval are not included.
If we consider the interval as real numbers, then there are infinitely many numbers there, like -15, -12.56, -8, -2pi, 0.02, 1.99.
If we are restricted to only whole numbers, then we get a limited set of the numbers: {-15, -14, -13, -12,....,1}
Note the greatest number at the right endpoint of the interval is 1, since we are not including 2.
The threatest whole number in the interval is 2
