Try using negative numbers
Answer:
t > -7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for t, first add 5 to both sides:
-2t - 5 < 9
-2t < 14
Divide each side by -2, and flip the inequality because we are dividing by a negative number:
-2t < 14
t > -7
So, the solution is t > -7
The steps in the patterns A and B form a sequence
The attached diagram represents dots in patterns A and B
<h3>How to draw the diagrams</h3>
For pattern A, we have:
Step 2 = 10 dots
Increment of 3 dots in each step
This means that:
Step 0 = 4 dots
Step 1 = 7 dots
Step 2 = 10 dots
Step 3 = 13 dots
For pattern A, we have the following rule

When n = 0 to 3, we have:

Step 0 = 1 dot

Step 1 = 3 dots

Step 2 = 9 dots

Step 3 = 19 dots
Next, we draw the diagrams of both patterns (see attachment)
