Solve the linear inequality 12x+1>9 .(1 point)
To solve the inequality 12x + 1 > 9:
12x > 9 - 1
12x > 8
Now, divide both sides of the inequality by 12:
x > 8/12
Simplifying the right side of the inequality:
x > 2/3
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x > 2/3.
wrong
Apologies for the mistake.
To solve the inequality 12x + 1 > 9:
First, subtract 1 from both sides:
12x + 1 - 1 > 9 - 1
12x > 8
Next, divide both sides by 12:
(12x)/12 > 8/12
x > 8/12
Reduce 8/12 to lowest terms:
x > 2/3
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x > 2/3.
