Answer 1

To solve the inequality \(2x + 10 \geq 12\), we will isolate \(x\) on one side of the inequality.

1. Start by subtracting 10 from both sides: \[ 2x + 10 - 10 \geq 12 - 10 \] This simplifies to: \[ 2x \geq 2 \]

2. Next, divide both sides by 2: \[ \frac{2x}{2} \geq \frac{2}{2} \] This simplifies to: \[ x \geq 1 \]

Now, we can write the inequality in the requested format with \(x\) first:

\[ x \geq 1 \]
