Question
Solve the following inequation
6x – 7 ≥ 35, where x is an integer
Advertisements
Solution
6x – 7 ≥ 35
Adding 7 on both the sides
6x – 7 + 7 ≥ 35 + 7
6x ≥ 42
Dividing both the sides by 6 we get `(6x)/6` ≥ `42/6`
x ≥ 7
Since the solution belongs to the set of integers that are greater than or equal to 7, we take the values of x as 7, 8, 9, 10 …
