Question

6e+1<4

What is this answer and graphs it on a number line

Answer 1

The inequality is false.

Answer 2

Answer: $e < \frac{1}{2}$, see attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

      First, we will isolate the e-variable.

Given:

  6e + 1 < 4

Subtract 1 from both sides of the inequality:

  6e < 3

Divide both sides of the inequality for 6:

  $e < \dfrac{1}{2}$

      Next, we will graph this on a number line.

  First, we will use an open circle at one-half because this is only less than, not less than and equal to (<, not ≤).

  Next, we will graph to the left of one-half because e is less than one-half, not greater than and equal to.
