Question 34708: Hello, Thanks in advance for your assistance. I need help with inequalities.
Question:
Y/-3 <= 4
I tried to solve by multiplying each side by the recipricol of -3/y, but could not solve w/the same rules as some of the other inequality problems that i've done. What is the rule when the unknown is part of the fraction? Found 2 solutions by stanbon, rahman:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Keep in mind that when you multiply thru an inequality by
a negative number, the inequality changes from > to < or
from < to >.
In your problem, multiply both sides by (-3) to get:
y>=-12
