Question 117580: given the following inequality: -4(x-3)+5< or equal to 3x-7
a. find solution set for x
b. verify answer by checking one value inside the solutions set,and one value outside the solution set.
c. How does the answer change in the above equation if we change the < or equal to a =

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
add both sides
add both sides
multiply both sides by and reverse < answer
check answer
Does solve original problem?
add to both sides
OK
------------------------------
What if ?
Make
multiply by and change < to > both sides
OK
--------------------------
Now try a value outside solution set
Make Not true, does not solve
-----------------------------
What if we change < to >? The > in answer becomes <
