\"Triple a number decreased by 12 is no more than -9\" translates to the following inequality\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3x+-+12+%3C=+-9\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let's solve for x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3x+-+12+%3C=+-9\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3x+%3C=+-9+%2B+12\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3x+%3C=+3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x+%3C=+3%2F3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x+%3C=+1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the possible values for this unknown number (x) is anything less than or equal to 1.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
