“-5 ≥ x”
Means that whatever value x has, it must be less that or
equal to -5
“-3 ≤ x”
This means that whatever value x has it must be greater
that or equal to 3

x-2 > 9
= x > 11
Solution:
x-2 > 9
You will transfer -2 on the right side so it will change into 2: x > 9+2
Then you will perform addition and it will become x > 11
x+8 ≥ 4
= x ≥ -4
Solution:
x+8 ≥ 4
You will transfer positive 8 on the right side so it will change into -8: x
≥ 4-8
Then you will perform the rules of subtraction : x ≥ 4+(-8)
Lastly you will perform addition and the answer will be x ≥ -4
