Question

Whats the inequality

Answer 1

0.5 (
`(1)/(2)`) > x or x < 0.5

Explanation:

To find the inequality in this question we first need to expand the brackets and simplify as much as we can!

• 3(2 + 4x) = 6 + 12x
• -(1 - 12x) = -1 + 12x
• 6 + 12x - 1 + 12x = 5 + 24x
• 17 > 5 + 24x

Now we just need to solve the inequality!

• 17 > 5 + 24x ... get rid of 5 by subtracting 5 from both sides!
• 12 > 24x
• 12 > 24x ... divide both sides by 24!
• 0.5 > 24x

Our final answer is 0.5 > 24x

Hope this helps, have a lovely day! :)
