Question

Negative six times a number is at least 14

Answer 1

n ≥ 14 (Read explanation please!)

Explanation:

I) Represent what n has to be at least with f:

-6f = 14

f = 2 1/3

II) Make the inequality, let's represent the number with n:

n ≥ 14

Answer 2

-6x
`\geq`14

Explanation:

For this inequality let x stand for a number. In algebra, when multiplying a constant and a variable, just put the constant next to the variable with no sign in between. In this inequality, -6 is the constant and x is the variable, so the left side of the inequality should be -6x. Then it says this monomial is at least 14, this means it is greater than or equal to, so the sign in between both sides should be
`\geq`. Therefore, the final answer is -6x
`\geq`14.
