Question

What values make t true is my inequality is (5-2t)<-4

Answer 1

Answer:

t ≥ 5

Step-by-step explanation:

I) Find what t needs to be at least, represent this with u:

5 - 2u = -4

-2u + 5 = -4 (Simplify by swapping signs and terms for 5 - 2u)

-2u = -9 (Subtract 5 from both sides)

2u = 9 (Make both sides positive values)

u = 4.5 (Divide both sides by 2)

II) Make an inequality for t:

Since t needs to be equal to or greater than 4.5, our inequality will be:

t ≥ 4.5
