T he quotient of a number x decreased by 4 and 7 is less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to 8. What is the possible solutions of x

Question

Please help me with this math 3 question

Answer 1

(x-4)/7 ≤ 2 {x decreased by 4 and 7 is less than or equal to 2}

x-4 ≤ 14

x ≤ 18

 

(x-4)/7 ≥ 8

x-4 ≥ 56

x≥ 60

 

So the solution is

x ≤ 18 or x≥ 60
