Solve 3x≥12 . Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first. Note: You will find the option to add a > , < , ≥ , or ≤ symbol in the Comparison (<) keyboard.
can you tell me how you got the answer
To solve the inequality 3x ≥ 12, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 3 (since it is a positive number) to isolate x.
(3x) / 3 ≥ 12 / 3
x ≥ 4
Thus, the solution to the inequality is x ≥ 4.
Solve 5x/9<8 . Write the improper fraction in your answer as a mixed number. Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first. Note: You will find the option to add a > , < , ≥ , or ≤ symbol in the Comparison (<) keyboard.
To solve the inequality (5x/9) < 8, we can multiply both sides of the inequality by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
(5x/9) * 9 < 8 * 9
5x < 72
Now, to isolate x, divide both sides of the inequality by 5:
(5x) / 5 < 72 / 5
x < 14.4
Since x must be less than 14.4, we can write the answer as a mixed number by expressing 14.4 as a mixed number:
14.4 = 14 + 0.4
Thus, the solution to the inequality is x < 14 and 4/10.

Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's solve the inequality correctly:
To solve the inequality (5x/9) < 8, we can multiply both sides of the inequality by 9 to eliminate the fraction:
(5x/9) * 9 < 8 * 9
5x < 72
Now, divide both sides of the inequality by 5 to isolate x:
(5x) / 5 < 72 / 5
x < 14.4
Since x must be less than 14.4, we can write the answer as a mixed number by expressing it as a whole number and fractional part:
x < 14 and 2/5
Thus, the solution to the inequality is x < 14 and 2/5.
