\n" ); document.write( "Hello, my name is Hannah and I would like to help you solve the inequality: 24n+20 is < or = 4(5n+13)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First of all, you are trying to isolate n, keep that in mind. You must simplify the equation by using the distibutive property.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "24n+20 is < or = 20n+52\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next, because the equation has varibles on both sides, you must collect the variables to form one. In this case, you would subtract 20n from both sides.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "24n+20-20n is < or = 20n+52-20n\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You are left with the equation 4n+20 is < or = 52. In order to isolate n, you have to take out additional information (addition, subtraction, etc.).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4n+20-20 is < or = 52-20\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now you have 4n is < or = 32 as your equation. Now, divide each side of the equation by 4.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4n/4=32/4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The answer is x is < or = 8.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If you need anything else, please inform me. I'll be more than happy to help. =] \n" ); document.write( "
