the inequality should be 4x + 6 > 30 4 times x is 4x, and if anything is greater then smth, you should use > if that number is on the left. to solve, just do what u would do in algebra, except charging the = into > 4x + 6 > 30 4x > 30 - 6 x > 24/4 x > 6
Answer: x > 6 . _________________________ Explanation: _________________________
4x + 6 > 30 ; Solve for "x" ; _________________________
Subtract "6" from both sides of the inequality: ____________________________________ 4x + 6 − 6 > 30 − 6 ; to get: ____________________________________ 4x > 24 ; ____________________________________ Divide EACH SIDE of the inequality by "4" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the inequality; and to solve the inequality (for "x") ; __________________________________ 4x / 4 > 24 / 4 ; to get: __________________________________ x > 6 . __________________________________
