Answer:

The solution will be:  [tex]2<x<5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is:   [tex]12<\frac{1}{2}(4x+16)<18[/tex]

First we will multiply all sides by 2 for eliminating that [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] in the middle part. So.........

[tex]2*12<2*\frac{1}{2}(4x+16)<2*18 \\ \\ 24<4x+16<36[/tex]

Now, we need to subtract 16 from all sides. So, we will get........

[tex]24-16<4x+16-16<36-16\\ \\ 8<4x<20[/tex]

Then, we will divide all sides by 4 for getting [tex]x[/tex] alone in the middle part. So.......

[tex]\frac{8}{4}< \frac{4x}{4}< \frac{20}{4} \\ \\ 2<x<5[/tex]

Thus, the solution will be:  [tex]2<x<5[/tex]

Answer:

-10<x<5

Step-by-step explanation:

-12<1/2(4x+16)<18

-12<2x+8<18

-8        -8   -8

-20<2x<10

/2    /2    /2

-10<x<5

take out the negative if it doesn't work.
