Question

Note: Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to solve this problem in the space provided. Solve the inequality. Explain all steps and identify the properties used. n/-3 + 5 > 4
Heres what i did i just want to check my answer
n/-3 + 5 > 4.
subtract 5 from both side:
n/-3 > -1.
Multiply both sides by -3 and reverse Inequality sign
n < 3.

Answer 1

Answer:

Your answer is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Indeed subtracting 5 from both sides would be n/-3> -1

Multiplying both sides by -3 would give you n < 3 (obviously after reversing the inequality sign)

Answer 2

Answer:

$n$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an inequality $\frac{n}{-3}+5>4$. We are asked to solve the given inequality by explaining all the steps.

First of all, we will subtract 5 from both sides of inequality using subtraction property of inequality as:

$\frac{n}{-3}+5-5>4-5$

$\frac{n}{-3}>-1$

To solve for n, we will multiply both sides of inequality by $-3$. We need to remember that when we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, the sign of inequality reverses.

$\frac{n}{-3}\cdot (-3)$

$n$

Therefore, the solution of our given inequality would be $n$.
