What is the solution of 7 + m is greater than or equal to 2 and m + 1 is less than 2?
Please explain or show how you got the answer-I'm having a really hard time
I'm assuming this is one problem with 2 inequalities.
7 + m >= 2. m + 1 < 2.
7 + m >= 2,
Subtract 7 from each side:
m >= -5,
m + 1 < 2,
Subtract 1 from each side:
m < 1.
Compound the 2 simplified inequalities:
-5 <= m < 1.
The inequality states that m is greater than or = to -5 but less than
1.
The following whole numbers will satisfy the inequality: m = -5,-4,-3,-2,-1,and 0.
