Question 74351: Could someone please help me with this?
+2%28n%2B1%29%2F7+%3E=+%28n%2B4%29%2F5+
I tried to multiply both sides by 7, and I ended up with:
+2n%2B70%3E=n%2B4+
+n%3E=-66+
Am I on the right track?
Your help would be appreciated.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2(n+1)/7 >= (n+4)/5
Multiply both sides by 35 to get:
10(n+1) >= 7(n+4)
10n+10 >= 7n+28
3n >= 18
n >= 6
