Note: With inequalities, there's a very high chance that you'll have more than one solution.


5t-5%3E=4t-9 Start with the given inequality.


5t%3E=4t-9%2B5 Add 5 to both sides.


5t-4t%3E=-9%2B5 Subtract 4t from both sides.


t%3E=-9%2B5 Combine like terms on the left side.


t%3E=-4 Combine like terms on the right side.

Answer:

So the solution is t%3E=-4
