You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The quantity 5 more than t is (5 + t)
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "the product of 9 and that quantity is 9(5+t) which multiplies out to 45 + 9t.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Finally, that result is less than 6. So the equation becomes:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"45+%2B+9t+%3C+6\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "This inequality is solvable for +t. Start by getting rid of 45 on the left side by subtracting
\n" ); document.write( "45 from both sides to get:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"+9t+%3C+6+-45\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "which simplifies to:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"9t+%3C+-39\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Then you can solve for t by dividing both sides by +9 to get:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+%3C+-39%2F9\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Note that the numerator and denominator of the right side are both divisible by 3. When you divide
\n" ); document.write( "them both by 3 the inequality simplifies to:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "\"t+%3C+-13%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "This means that the original inequality will be true whenever t is less than \"-13%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "which means whenever t on the number line is to the left of the point \"-13%2F3\".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "That's the answer to the original problem.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Hope that this helps you to understand problem wording a little better and shows you the way
\n" ); document.write( "that the problem can be worked all the way to an answer for t.
