2x - 10 ≤ 52
Add 10 to both sides of the inequality:
2x - 10 + 10 ≤ 52 + 10
2x ≤ 62
Divide both sides of the inequality by 2:
(2x)/2 ≤ 62/2
x ≤ 31
The possible values of the number are all real numbers less than or equal to 31: x ≤ 31.
Ten less than twice a number is equal to at most 52. What are all the possible values of the number? Inuk wrote the inequality 2x−10≤52 , where x equals the number, to help solve this problem. Solve his inequality. Use the letter x as your variable and write your x term first. Note: You will find the option to add a > , < , ≥ , or ≤ symbol in the Comparison (<) keyboard.
