Respuesta :

Answer:

B. In step 2, marquis should have interpreted the results as x _< - 9.2, which means that x is less than or equal to -9.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 is correct.

Step 2.

-9.2 >= x

Subtract x from both sides.

-x - 9.2 >= 0

Add 9.2 to both sides.

-x >= 9.2

Divide both sides by -1. When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality, the inequality sign changes direction.

x <= -9.2

The first error is in Step 2.

Answer:

B. In step 2, marquis should have interpreted the results as x _< - 9.2, which means that x is less than or equal to -9.2
