Full solution

Q. Solve for ss.\newline2(s+18)+4162(s + 18) + 4 \geq 16
  1. Distribute 22: Distribute 22 into the parentheses. \newline2(s+18)+4=2s+36+42(s + 18) + 4 = 2s + 36 + 4
  2. Combine like terms: Combine like terms on the left side of the inequality. 2s+36+4=2s+402s + 36 + 4 = 2s + 40
  3. Subtract 4040: Subtract 4040 from both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with the variable ss.\newline2s+404016402s + 40 - 40 \geq 16 - 40
  4. Simplify inequality: Simplify both sides of the inequality. 2s242s \geq -24
  5. Divide by 22: Divide both sides of the inequality by 22 to solve for ss.2s2242\frac{2s}{2} \geq \frac{-24}{2}
  6. Find value of \newliness: Simplify both sides of the inequality to find the value of \newliness.\newline\newlines12s \geq -12
