solve 2x + 10 _> 12. make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first

To solve the inequality 2x + 10 ≥ 12 and write it in a way where x comes first, we need to rearrange the terms.

Starting with 2x + 10 ≥ 12, we can subtract 10 from both sides of the inequality:

2x + 10 - 10 ≥ 12 - 10
2x ≥ 2

Finally, we can divide both sides by 2 to isolate the x:

(2x) / 2 ≥ 2 / 2
x ≥ 1

So the solution to the given inequality, written in a way where x comes first, is x ≥ 1.
