Question 407373
# 1


{{{3x-15>=3}}} Start with the given inequality.



{{{3x>=3+15}}} Add {{{15}}} to both sides.



{{{3x>=18}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x>=(18)/(3)}}} Divide both sides by {{{3}}} to isolate {{{x}}}. 



{{{x>=6}}} Reduce.



----------------------------------------------------------------------


Answer:


So the answer is {{{x>=6}}} 


So the solution is any number that is equal to 6 or any number that is greater than 6.

The inequality 3n < 52  is read "three n is less than 52" and it translates to the English phrase "triple some number is less than 52"

# 3


"Thomas earned $44 or more" means {{{t>=44}}}, so a  &#8805;  symbol will go in between the two.
