Question

Choose Yes or No to tell whether the Addition Property of Inequality can be used to solve each statement.

w – 4 > –10

12 ≥ 20x

7y10 ≤ 5.5

–3.25 < x – 9.75

Answer 1

Answer:

w – 4 > –10 ---> Yes

12 ≥ 20x  ---> No

7y+10 ≤ 5.5  ---> Yes

–3.25 < x – 9.75 ---> Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is $w-4\:>\:-10$

To solve this inequality, we need to add 4 to both sides to get:

$w\:>\:-10+4$

Hence  the Addition Property of Inequality can be used.

The second inequality is $12\ge 20x$

To solve this inequality, we divide both sides by 20 to get:

$\frac{12}{20}\ge x$

Hence Addition Property of Inequality cannot be used

Assuming this inequality is $7y+10\le5.5$

To solve this inequality, we add -10 to both sides.

Hence Addition Property of Inequality can be used

Also to solve –3.25 < x – 9.75, we add 9.75  to both sides.

Hence, the Addition Property of Inequality can be used.
