How do you solve the inequality x + 5 ≤ 13?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: x ≤ 8.

Front

How do you solve the inequality m - 9 ≤ 20?

Back

Add 9 to both sides: m ≤ 29.

Front

What is the solution to the inequality 2x > 10?

Back

Divide both sides by 2: x > 5.

How do you represent 'Ava's brother is at least 2 years older than she is' as an inequality?

Back

If Ava's age is m, then the inequality is m + 2 ≥ brother's age.

What is the solution to the inequality 3x + 6 < 15?

Back

Subtract 6 from both sides: 3x < 9, then divide by 3: x < 3.
