What happens if you add or subtract a value to both sides of an inequality?
The direction of the inequality remains unchanged. The direction changes when you divide or multiply both sides by a negative number. It also changes if both sides are raised to a negative exponent.
-5x 4 greater than -2x 31?
-5x + 4 > -2x + 31 add 2x and subtract 4 to both sides; -3x > 27 divide by -3 to both sides and change the symbol of the inequality; x < 9
How do you solve an inequality with fractions and variables on both sides?
You solve an inequality the same way you solve an equality. You add and subtract, multiply and divide, both sides by the same value in order to isolate one of the variables. The only extra thing you need to remember is that if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you must reverse the order of the inequality, i.e. less than or equal becomes greater than or equal.
Simplify the following expression 33z-4-20 z-5?
I am assuming that the original equation is 33z-4-20=z-5. Subtract z from both sides. Add 4 to both sides, as well as add 20 to both sides. Divide both sides by 32.
What it 2t-6 equals 3-t?
2t-6=3-t 3t-6=3 Add t to both sides 3t=9 Add 6 to both sides t=3 Divide both sides by 3
