Question 8 (5 points)

For what values of x is the inequality 6x < 12 true?
Ox<2
x2
Ox>6
x <6

Answer 1

x < 2

Explanation:

We are given the inequality:

`6x < 12`

We want to solve for x. We must isolate x on one side of the inequality.

x is being multiplied by 6. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the inequality by 6.

`6x/6 < 12/6`

`x< 12/6`

`x<2`

For the values of x where x<2, the inequality 6x < 12 is true.
