The name of the game is to get the variable x all by itself. In this case, you have a DOUBLE inequality, which is given in 3 parts. In order to get the x term alone, you must SUBTRACT 4 from each of the 3 parts, like this:




I have a complete explanation on solving inequalities like this on my website. To find my website click on my tutor name "rapaljer" anywhere in algebra.com. There you will find a link to take you to my website. On the Homepage of my website, look for the link near the top of the page "Basic, Intermediate, and College Algebra: One Step at a Time." Next, click on "Basic Algebra", then look in Chapter 1, and look for "Section 1.11."

If you like the website, please recommend it to your friends and family. Almost everyone knows someone who needs help with math!! I have so much on my website, and it's all FREE!!!
