myininaya (myininaya):

what did u get when you solved the inequality?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

myininaya (myininaya):

\[3n-4 \le 23\] add 4 on both sides then divide by 3 on both sides and you get....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and you get.....

myininaya (myininaya):

no its not B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Dang it!

myininaya (myininaya):

lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what do you get?

myininaya (myininaya):

add 4 on both sides what do you get after doing that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide 3 on both sides!

myininaya (myininaya):

adding 4 on both sides looks like this: \[3n-4+4 \le 23+4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so the answer is.... i know that but i need the answer to see if im corect! :D

myininaya (myininaya):

so we have \[3n \le 27\] now we get n by itself by doing....

myininaya (myininaya):

well we already determined you werent correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Multiplication!

myininaya (myininaya):

multiply by what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3

myininaya (myininaya):

no if you multiply by 3 you not get n by itself to get n by itself you need to get rid of that multiplication of 3 on it by multiplying by ? or you could say dviding by ?

myininaya (myininaya):

what happens if we divide by 3 instead of multiply by it/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YAY! SURE!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:D

myininaya (myininaya):

we get \[n \le ?\] what goes in place of that ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummmm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure! :D

myininaya (myininaya):

well if you divided both sides by 3 then 27 divided by 3 is ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think its 3 or nine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9

myininaya (myininaya):

this is what we did: \[\frac{3n}{3} \le \frac{27}{3}\] \[n \le 9\]

myininaya (myininaya):
