Section B
6. Assertion (A): If 11x - 9 ≤ 68 then x ∈ (−∞ , 7].
Reason (R): If an inequality consist of signs ≤ or ≥ then the f on the line are also included in the solution region.
a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct b) Both A and R are true but R is not the
explanation of A. correct explanation of A.
Reason (R): If both sides are divided by the same negative quantity, then the inequality is reversed.
a) Both A and R are true and R is the correct b) Both A and R are true but R is not the
explanation of A. correct explanation of A.

(i) If the inequality involves > or <, then we draw open circle (∘) on the number line to show that, the number
corresponding to the open circle is excluded from the solution set.
(ii) If linear inequalities in one variable are x ≤ 5 and x ≥ 5, then the solution of the system of linear inequalities
in one variable is x = 5.
(iii)The half plane of -3x + 2y ≥ -6 is towards the origin.
(iv)If a > b and c > 0, then > and ac > bc.
