Worked practice questions

Solving 4x plus 3 less than 6x plus 7 gives:

  1. x above plus 2
  2. x below plus 2
  3. x above minus 2
  4. x below minus 2
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. x above minus 2

1. Bring like terms together to get minus 4 less than 2x. 2. Divide both sides by the positive 2. 3. So x is greater than minus 2. _Source: syllabus Mathematics, Chapter 6, Linear Inequalities._
