\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"1%2F%28t-5%29+%3C+3%2F%28t%2B5%29\" multiply both sides by (t-5)(t+5) to get rid of fractions\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%28t-5%29%28t%2B5%29%29%2F%28t-5%29%3C%283%28t-5%29%28t%2B5%29%29%2F%28t%2B5%29\" simplify\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28t%2B5%29%3C3%28t-5%29\" get rid of parens\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t%2B5%3C3t-15\" subtract 5 and also 3t from both sides\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"t%2B5-5-3t%3C3t-3t-15-5\" collect like terms\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"-2t%3C-20\" divide both sides by -2 (remember the inequality sign will reverse)\r
