This is not an inequality. There is no <,>, or = sign.
p is less than 12.
P<12
It is an inequality that defines a range of values of p for which it is correct.
3p - 16 < 20Add 16 to each side:3p < 36Divide each side by 3:p < 12
p>9
3p - 6 > 21 3p - 6+6 > 21+6 3p > 27 3p/3 > 27/3 p>9 this WILL help
p is equal to any number greater than 12. 3p - 16 > 20 3p > 20 + 16 3p > 36 p > 12
There appears to be no inequality in the question: only some disjoint expressions. Expressions cannot be solved.

The answer to the equation is p is equal to nine. You solve the equation by putting like terms together and then solving for p.
1. Write out your expression. You can treat inequalities like equalities when solving. This means if < or > make you uncomfortable, pretend it's an = and solve it algebraically:3p - 6 > 212. Add 6 to both sides.3p > 273. Divide by 3 on both sides.p > 94. P is greater than 9.
