Solve for y:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"5%284x%2B3%29%3C=-%281%2F2%29y%2B5\" First, multiply both sides by -2 and don't forget to reverse to order of the inequality.
\n" ); document.write( "\"-10%284x%2B3%29%3E=y-10\" Add 10 to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "\"-10%284x%2B3%29%2B10+%3E=y\" Simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3C=-40x-30%2B10\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3C=-40x+-+20\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%3C=-20%282x%2B1%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
