Question

Is -100 possible solution to the following inequality?

10 ≥ 35 − x

Answer 1

no

Explanation:

10 ≥ 35 − x

Subtract 35 from each side

10 -35≥ 35 -35− x

-25 ≥ − x

Multiply each side by -1 remembering to flip the inequality

25 ≤ x

X must be greater than 25

-100 is not greater than 25 so it is not a solution
