    Algebra Solving inequalities
    Replace each (&) with the number that makes the inequalities equivalent.

    x+(&)>=25 ; x>=-12


    Ok I no the answer is 37 But I need to no how to get that please.

    If you don't understand my questing in words it would mean X plus what is greater then or equal to 25 is equivalent to X is greater then or equal to -12

    You take the x limit from the last equation, and feed it into the first.

    to find the limit, you then make it an equivalence:

    -12 + (&) = 25

    solve for (&).

    Simply subtract the 25 from the -12 to get the answer.
