Math Problem Statement
Solve the linear inequalities below and give your answer in interval notation.
Solution
Let's solve some of these inequalities step by step. I'll start with problem 2 from the image. If you have a particular one you'd like to focus on, let me know!
Problem 2:
Step 1: Eliminate the fraction by multiplying both sides by 3:
Step 2: Subtract 4 from both sides:
Thus, the solution in interval notation is:
Let me know if you'd like to go through another problem or need details for this one. Here are 5 possible related questions:
- Would you like to solve problem 4 next?
- How would the solution change if the inequality were strict (i.e., instead of )?
- Can you explain how to convert the inequality into interval notation?
- What is the effect of multiplying or dividing by a negative number in inequalities?
- Would you like to go through how to check the solution graphically?
Tip: When solving inequalities, remember that multiplying or dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign!
