Algebra.Com's Answer #408094 by DrBeeee(684)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Given: \n" ); document.write( "(1) -13 < -2+6M <= -6 \n" ); document.write( "To solve just do one side at a time. Let's do the left side first, \n" ); document.write( "(2) -13 < -2+6M \n" ); document.write( "Add 2 to each side and get \n" ); document.write( "(3) -13 +2 < -2 +2 + 6M or \n" ); document.write( "(4) -11 < 6M or by dividing by +6 we get \n" ); document.write( "(5) -(11/6) < M \n" ); document.write( "Now do the right side of (1) \n" ); document.write( "(6) -2+6M <= -6 \n" ); document.write( "Now add 2 to each side and get \n" ); document.write( "(7) 6M <= -4 or \n" ); document.write( "(8) M <= -(2/3) \n" ); document.write( "The final compound inequality is \n" ); document.write( "(9) -(11/6) < M <= -(2/3) \n" ); document.write( "You can also work directly with (1), in a two stepper \n" ); document.write( "First add 2 to each of the 3 parts and get \n" ); document.write( "(10) -11 < 6M <= -4, \n" ); document.write( "Now divide each term by +6 and get \n" ); document.write( "(11) -(11/6) < M <= -(2/3), voila! \n" ); document.write( " |
