An inequality requires an inequality sign, usually "less than", "less-than-or-equal", "greater than", or "greater than or equal".

Assuming one of these inequality signs is between the "4x" and the "12", for example:

4x < 12,

just divide both sides by 4. Just as when you solve equations, the idea is to isolate the variable on one side.

Which inequality has 20 as a solution?

To find the inequality with 20 as a solution, we can represent it as x &gt; 20, x ≥ 20, x &lt; 20, or x ≤ 20. The inequality x ≥ 20 would have 20 as a solution since it includes all values greater than or equal to 20. This means that any number equal to or greater than 20 would satisfy the inequality x ≥ 20.


What is the solution to the inequality of 4g is less than 7g plus 12 detailing your work?

4g &lt; 7g+12 Subtract 7g from both sides: 4g-7g &lt; 12 -3g &lt; 12 Divide both sides by -3 and reverse the inequality sign: g &gt; -4 on the number line

How do you solve -12 is less than or equal to -12?

To solve the inequality -12 ≤ -12, we first recognize that both sides are equal. This means that the inequality is true when the values are equal. In this case, -12 is indeed equal to -12, so the inequality holds true. In interval notation, this solution is represented as [-12, -12].

What is the solution to the inequality 4(2x plus 2) plus 12 and gt 1004(2x plus 2) plus 12 and gt 100?

There is no solution to: 4(2x + 2) + 12 &gt; 1004(2x + 2) + 12 &gt; 100 For 4(2x + 2) + 12 &gt; 1004(2x + 2) + 12 to have a solution x &lt; -1 which makes 1004(2x + 2) + 12 &lt; 12, BUT 1004(2x + 2) + 12 is supposed to be greater than 100. Perhaps there is a missing operator in the digits of 1004?

How do you solve -12 z and divide 3 for z.?

Without an equality sign the given expression is not an equation and so therefore a solution is not possible.


How many gallons of a 12 percent indicator solution must be mixed with a 20 percent indicator solution to get 10 gallons of a 14 percent solution?

Let x represent the amount of 12% solution and (10-x) represent the amount of 20% solution. The equation to solve is: 0.12x + 0.20(10-x) = 0.14(10). Solving for x gives x = 4, so you need 4 gallons of the 12% solution and 6 gallons of the 20% solution to make 10 gallons of the 14% solution.
