Question 58729
2a - 5 > 17 


              Given that

               2a - 5 > 17 

               Add  5 on both sides, we get

               2a > 17 + 5

               2a > 22

               Now divide by 2 on both sides, we get

               a > 11 

               The solution is  a >11


C/4 + 7 < -6

                  Given that

                 (C/4) + 7 < -6

                 Subtract 7 on both sides, we get
 
                 (C/4) + 7 - 7 < - 6 – 7

                 (C/4)< -13

                 Now multiply on both sides by 4, we get

                 C < -13 * 4

                 C < - 52    

                 The solution is  C < - 52
