La’Shondra solves the inequality 6+3x≤24. She begins by subtracting 6 from both sides of the inequality and then divides both sides of the equivalent inequality by a number. What is the number?(1 point)

2 answers

To solve the inequality 6+3x≤24, La'Shondra subtracts 6 from both sides:

6+3x - 6 ≤ 24 - 6
3x ≤ 18

Next, La'Shondra divides both sides of the inequality by a number to solve for x. The number by which she divides both sides is 3, since 3 is the coefficient of the x term:

(3x) / 3 ≤ 18 / 3
x ≤ 6

Therefore, the number by which La'Shondra divides both sides of the inequality is 3.
Solve the inequality Rx>10, where R is a number greater than 0.
