Question

2t + 8 ≥ −4(t + 1)
t ≥ _____

Answer 1

To solve the inequality, we can start by distributing the -4 to (t + 1) on the right side of the equation:

2t + 8 ≥ -4t - 4

Next, we can combine like terms:

2t + 4t ≥ -4 - 8

Which simplifies to:

6t ≥ -12

To isolate t, we can divide both sides of the equation by 6:

t ≥ -12/6

Which further simplifies to:

t ≥ -2

Therefore, t is greater than or equal to -2.
