What is a correct first step in solving the inequality –4(3 – 5x)≥ –6x + 9? –12 – 20x ≤ –6x + 9
–12 – 20x ≥ –6x + 9
–12 + 20x ≤ –6x + 9
–12 + 20x ≥ –6x + 9

-12 + 20x ≥ -6x + 9

Fourth choice

Step-by-step explanation:

Inequalities

We are given the inequality:

-4(3 - 5x) ≥ -6x + 9

Solving the inequality implies having x isolated on one of the sides.

We must start by removing the parentheses. It will be done by multiplying -4 by (3 - 5x). Since this operation doesn't imply multiplying all the inequality by a negative number, the sign won't be flipped:

-4*3 - (-4)5x ≥ -6x + 9

Multiplying:

-12 + 20x ≥ -6x + 9

Fourth choice

answer

see attachment

explanation

the given function is

this function has y-intercept at

-4 and a slope of 2.

note that, the graph has a positive slope.

the graph that represents this function is the straight line that moves upward from left to right.

the graph touches the y-axis at -4.

the correct choice is the graph shown in the attachment.
