Question 74983: -2(n+1)-3<1
Answer by cathieb1225(41) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! -2(n+1)-3<1
Multiply first
-2n-2-3<1
Add like terms on the left side of inequality
-2n-5<1
Now add 5 to both sides to put your constant on the right side of the inequality
-2n-5+5<1+5
-2n<6
Now divide both sides of the inequality by -2.Remember that dividing by a negative number "flips" the inequality sign.
-2n/-2>6/-2
n>-3
