One half a number increased by three is greater than zero or less than or equal to negative three

Respuesta :

-3 is the answer to the question

Answer:

The required inequality for both the statement is: [tex]\frac{1}{2} x+3>0[/tex]  and [tex]\frac{1}{2}x+3\leq -3[/tex]

The solution for the inequalities are x>-6 and [tex]x\leq -12[/tex] respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

One half a number increased by three is greater than zero

Let the number is x.

Thus, the required inequality is:

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x+3>0[/tex]

Or One half a number increased by three is less than or equal to negative three.

Thus, the required inequality is:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}x+3\leq -3[/tex]

Now solve the above inequality for x.

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x+3>0[/tex]  or  [tex]\frac{1}{2}x+3\leq -3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x>-3[/tex]  or  [tex]\frac{1}{2}x\leq -3-3[/tex]

[tex]x>-3\times 2[/tex]  or  [tex]\frac{1}{2}x\leq -6[/tex]

[tex]x>-6[/tex]  or  [tex]x\leq -12[/tex]

Hence, the value of x is [tex]x>-6[/tex]  or  [tex]x\leq -12[/tex]
