Solve q + 12 - 2 (q - 22) > 0

1 answer

To solve the inequality, we need to simplify the expression first.

Using the distributive property, we have:

q + 12 - 2(q - 22) > 0

q + 12 - 2q + 44 > 0

Combine like terms:

-q + 56 > 0

Now, let's solve for q:

-q > -56

Divide both sides by -1, remembering to flip the inequality sign:

q < 56

Therefore, the solution to the inequality q + 12 - 2(q - 22) > 0 is q < 56.
