You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2(c-4)<= 10-c | distribute the 2 on the left...multiply it by c and by -4
\n" ); document.write( "2c-8 <=10-c | add c to both sides and add 8 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "2c+8-8+c<=10-c+c+8
\n" ); document.write( "3c<=18 | divide both sides by 3
\n" ); document.write( "3c/3<=18/3
\n" ); document.write( "c<=6


\n" ); document.write( "Check it. Use c=1 which is <= 6.


\n" ); document.write( "2(1-4)<=10-1
\n" ); document.write( "-6<=9 true.
\n" ); document.write( "C>=6 is not the correct answer. Plug in a number from that solution into the original inequality. Call C=10 which is >=6.
\n" ); document.write( "2(10-4) <= 10-10
\n" ); document.write( "12<= 0 is not true.
\n" ); document.write( "

If you need help understanding math so you can solve these problems yourself, then one on one online tutoring is the answer ($30/hr). If you need faster solutions with guaranteed detailed answers, then go with personal problem solving ($3.50-$5.50 per problem). Contact me at fcabanski@hotmail.com
