Suppose  I am in debt to someone to the value of  $5.  Then we can say that my net worth is -5. Now my friend wants to help me out with my debt by 'taking away' the -5. He can do this by giving me $5 and now my debt is zero.

so  we can say that  these 2 are equivalent   -5-(-5) = -5 + 5 = 0.

Hope this helps.

Graph the solution set of this inequality 3x-2y <_ 12
nadezda [96]

The graph of the solution set for the inequality can be seen below.

<h3>How to graph the solution set?</h3>

Here we have the inequality:

3x - 2y < -12

If we isolate y, we get:

3x + 12 < 2y

(3x + 12)/2 < y

(3/2)x + 6 < y

Now, we just need to graph the line y = (3/2)x + 6 with a dashed line (because the points on the line are not solutions).

And then we need to shade the region above the line.

The graph of the solution set can be seen below.
