Algebra.Com's Answer #505676 by Ilovemusic237(2) You can put this solution on YOUR website! -4(3+n) > -32 \n" ); document.write( "Multiply -4 and 3: The answer is -12. Then multiply -4 & n. This gives you -4n. \n" ); document.write( "So now we have this: -12 -4n > 32. \n" ); document.write( "Now you add 12 to both sides of the equal sign, because you are doing the inverse operation. So -12 + 12 = 0, so that cancels itself. Then you add 12 to 32, which gives you 44. \n" ); document.write( "(Remember that -12 was canceled out) So now we have -4n > 44. Now we want to get the -4 away from the variable n. This means that we will have to do the inverse operation, therefore, we have to divide -4 on both sides of the equal sign. So -4 divided by -4 = 0, so now we just have n by itself. The last step is to divide the other side by -4. So, 44 divided by -4 equals -11. \n" ); document.write( "That's all you have to doto solve inequalities such as this one! Hope that helped!\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "SOLUTION: n > -11 \n" ); document.write( " |
