## anonymous one year ago I WILL MEDAL AND FAN!! HELP ME UNDERSTAND Choose the correct description of the graph of the compound inequality: 3x + 1 > 7 and 4x less than or equal to 24 A number line with an open circle on 2, a closed circle on 6, and shading in between A number line with an open circle on 2, shading to the left, and a closed circle on 6, shading to the right A number line with a closed circle on 2, shading to the left, and an open circle on 6, shading to the right A number line with a closed circle on 2, an open circle on 6, and shading in between

HI!!

2. anonymous

hi again

3. misty1212

can you solve $3x+1>7$? takes two steps only

4. anonymous

subtract 1, then you get 3x>6, but you divide by 3 to get x>2

5. misty1212

yes

6. anonymous

so its A or b, not c and d

7. misty1212

so one inequality is $$x>2$$ lets solve the other one $4x\leq 24$

8. anonymous

i think that its b?

9. misty1212

idk lets solve the inequality , then we will know without guessing there is more work to do

10. anonymous

wait i see what i di wrong, i mixed up the answers. i think its a, but we shuld solve anyway.

11. misty1212

takes one step to solve $4x\leq 28$

12. misty1212

oops i meant $4x\leq 24$ what do you get ?

13. anonymous

x<=6

14. anonymous

so A

15. misty1212

ok so it is $2<x\leq 6$

16. anonymous

thank you so much!!
