Question 307277: I am having trouble with the addition and multiplication principles of solving inequalities. These are the problems I am struggling with: addition principle; t-19<12 and multiplication principle; 6a+10 is greater than or equal to 7a. When trying to solve these problems I do not get the answers that are on the multiple choice mixed problems in my class. PLEASE HELP!

Solve:
t-19+%3C+12 Just add 19 to both sides.
highlight%28t+%3C+31%29
6a%2B10+%3E=+7a Subtract 6a from both sides.
10+%3E=+a or highlight%28a+%3C=+10%29
