Algebra.Com's Answer #742498 by greenestamps(13216) You can put this solution on YOUR website! \n" ); document.write( "Switching the sign from > to < was good -- that's a mistake that is easy to make. \n" ); document.write( "Don't change your answer to a decimal approximation. Leave it as an exact answer as a fraction. \n" ); document.write( "When you divided by -3 you should have ended up with \n" ); document.write( "x < -20/3 \n" ); document.write( "You show \n" ); document.write( "x < 20/3 \n" ); document.write( "I don't know if you got the wrong answer (by dividing positive by negative and getting a positive answer), or if you just left out the \"-\" when showing the answer you got. \n" ); document.write( " |
