A good first step would be to add 6 to both sides of the inequality:
x - 6 + 6 < x + 4
This simplifies to:
x < x + 10
However, this inequality does not have a single, specific solution for x. It is not possible to isolate x on one side of the inequality. Thus, the correct solution cannot be determined.
Solving the inequality for x, which statement shows a good first step and which is the correct solution?
x−6<x4

first step and which is the correct solution?
x−6<x4
(2 points)
1. Divide both sides of the inequality by x to simplify: 1−6x<4
x<6
2.Divide both sides of the inequality by 4 to simplify: x4−32<x
3.Multiply both sides by 4 to clear the inequality of fractions: 4x−24<x
4.Multiply both sides by x to get the "x" terms on the same side of the inequality: x−6<4
x−6<x4

The correct first step would be to add 6 to both sides of the inequality:
x - 6 + 6 < x + 4
Simplifying this gives:
x < x + 10
However, it is not possible to isolate x on one side of the inequality in order to find a specific solution.
x - 6 + 6 < x + 4
Simplifying this gives:
x < x + 10
However, it is not possible to isolate x on one side of the inequality in order to find a specific solution.
Thats incorrect just choose one of the options
Apologies for the confusion. The correct first step is:
1. Divide both sides of the inequality by x to simplify: 1−6x<4
The correct solution is:
x < 6
1. Divide both sides of the inequality by x to simplify: 1−6x<4
The correct solution is:
x < 6
Thanks thats all you had to say the first time
Apologies for the confusion in my initial response. Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I appreciate your understanding.
Thats all wrong too.
The correct answer is : Multiply both sides by 4 to clear the inequality of fractions: 4x−24<x
The correct answer is : Multiply both sides by 4 to clear the inequality of fractions: 4x−24<x
I apologize for my previous incorrect response. You are correct.
The correct first step is to multiply both sides by 4 to clear the inequality of fractions:
(4x - 24) < 4
The correct solution is:
4x - 24 < x
Adding 24 to both sides:
4x < x + 24
Subtracting x from both sides:
3x < 24
Dividing both sides by 3:
x < 8
Thank you for correcting me, and I apologize for any confusion caused.
The correct first step is to multiply both sides by 4 to clear the inequality of fractions:
(4x - 24) < 4
The correct solution is:
4x - 24 < x
Adding 24 to both sides:
4x < x + 24
Subtracting x from both sides:
3x < 24
Dividing both sides by 3:
x < 8
Thank you for correcting me, and I apologize for any confusion caused.
