Step-by-step solution
8 stepsSimplify the first term and find the Least Common Multiple (LCM) of the denominators.
The inequality is:
Simplify the first term: .
The denominators are 3, 4, 6, and 6. The LCM of 3, 4, and 6 is 12.Multiply every term in the inequality by the LCM (12) to eliminate the denominators.
Simplify each term.
Distribute the numbers into the parentheses.
Remember to distribute the negative signs.
Combine like terms on the left side of the inequality.
Subtract 11 from both sides of the inequality.
Divide both sides by 5 to solve for .
As a decimal, .
Represent the solution on a number line.
Draw a number line. Place an open circle at (since is strictly greater than , not equal to it). Draw an arrow extending to the right from the open circle, indicating all values greater than .
The solution is .
graph TD A[Number Line] --> B(--- -3 --- -2.6 --- -2 --- -1 --- 0 ---); B --> C{Open circle at -2.6}; C --> D[Arrow pointing right from -2.6];
