You can put this solution on YOUR website!
First you should get rid of all of the brackets, to simplify the inequality.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"8-1%2B3x+%3E+2%2B12x\" (I used distributive property. Remember to watch how signs change when you have negative numbers, etc, in brackets.)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"7%2B3x+%3E+2+%2B12x+\"(Combine like terms)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"7-2%3E12x-3x\" (move variable to one side, numbers to the other.)
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%3E9x\" (combine like terms)
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2F9%3Ex\"(Find x)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "And that's how you do it. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now you can test that by finding any number less than \"5%2F9\" to test out and plug back into the equation. Let's do \"1%2F3\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"8-%281-3x%29%3E2%281%2B6x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8-1%2B3x+%3E+2%2B12x\"
\n" ); document.write( "Substituting x: \"7%2B3%281%2F3%29%3E2%2B12%281%2F3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"7%2B1%3E2%2B4\"
\n" ); document.write( "Is \"8%3E6\"? Yes.
\n" ); document.write( "Since this is correct, you know your answer is correct.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
