You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Given 0 >= (5-x) >= -10
2
Multiply the above equation by 2, we get
0 * 2 > = (5-x) > = (-10 * 2)
0 >= (5-x) >= -20
Subtract 5 in the above equation, we get
- 5 > = (5- x -5) >= -20 -5
- 5 > =(- x) > = (-25)
Whenever we negative sign in the “x”,
We multiply the equation with minus sign and interchange the inequality,
So we get
5 <= x <= 25
