Jane final solution is wrong due to the direction of the inequality sign

Solving linear equation

Linear equations are equation that has a leading degree of 1

Given the inequality below

-8x + 12x + 2 ≥ 62

Simplify to have

4x  + 2 ≥ 62

Subtract 2 from both sides

4x  + 2  - 2≥ 62 - 2

4x ≥ 60

Divide both sides by 4

4x/4≥ 60/4

x≥ 15

We can see that jane final solution is wrong due to the direction of the inequality sign
