solve an inequality containing the expression -3(2x-3).
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "We could write like this
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "-3(2x - 3) > -15
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by -1, this changes the signs and reverses the inequality sign
\n" ); document.write( "3(2x - 3) < 15
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 3
\n" ); document.write( "2x - 3 < 5
\n" ); document.write( "Add 3 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "2x < 5 + 3
\n" ); document.write( "2x < 8
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( "x < 4
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let's see if that's true, assume x is less than 4, lets say x = 3
\n" ); document.write( "-3(2(3) - 3 > -15
\n" ); document.write( "-3(6 - 3) > -15
\n" ); document.write( "-3(3) > -15
\n" ); document.write( "-9 > -15, is true, -9 is greater than -15 \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
