$\"4%288-2b%29-2b+%3C=32\"$ use distribution to expand the left most term
\n" ); document.write( " $\"32+-+8b+-+2b+%3C=+32\"$ collect like terms (collect the terms with b in them and also collect the constants)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-10b+%3C=+0\"$ isolate the variable by dividing both sides by -10
\n" ); document.write( " $\"b+%3E=+0+\"$ remember that when you divide or multiply an inequality by a negative number, you must flip the sign of the inequality\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Test your answer by selecting a value for b that is > 0, one that is 0, and one that is less than 0 . Then verify the result is 'true' for >0 and 0. And hat it is not true for b < 0.
