Answer:
12x - 6 ≤ - 18
Step-by-step explanation:
We will call "a number" x so
Twelve times a number would be:
12x
Then minus 6
12x - 6
Now we add the less than or equal to sign.
12x - 6 ≤
This is equal to negative eighteen, so:
12x - 6 ≤ - 18
As a bonus we can also solve for x.
12x - 6 = - 18 Add 6 to each side.
12x - 6 + 6 = -18 + 6
12x = -18 + 6
12x = -12 Divide each side by 12
12x/12 = -12/12
x = -12/12
x = -1
So we can say when x ≤ -1 Then 12x - 6 ≤ -18
