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 operation gives the solution to the inequality 4x less than or equal to 12?

Division by 4: 4x &acirc;&permil;&curren; 12 divide both sides by 4: x &acirc;&permil;&curren; 3


Which inequality has 20 as a solution?

-6+m&gt;12 +6 +6 m&gt;18 20&gt;18 Substitute 20 in for m, and that makes the inequality correct.


What is the solution for 3x greater than or equal to 12?

To solve the inequality 3x ≥ 12, you need to isolate x. First, divide both sides by 3 to get x ≥ 4. This means that any value of x that is greater than or equal to 4 satisfies the inequality. In interval notation, the solution is [4, ∞).


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

What is the solution to this inequality -1 is less than or equals to r plus 12 less than or equals to 50?

'r' is equal to, or anywhere between, -13 and 38 .


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?

What is the inequality of 4 times a number is at least -48?

The inequality that fits this condition is that x is greater than or equal to -12.


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.
