x/4+6 1/4 is less than 7 1/2

Question

you also have to graph the solution 

 

x/4+6 1/4>7 1/2 

 

and solving for x

 

 

please help!

Answer 1

note: graphing is ridiculously difficult in a character-based environment.

 

x/4+6 1/4 < 7 1/2

 

multiply both sides by 4

 

x + 25 < 30

    - 25     -25      --subtract 25 from both sides

x < 5

 

---  |xxxx|xxxx|xxxx|----| ...    where the x's go to negative infinity.

            -5       0      5    10
