Question

Solve -3x + 1 > 4 and describe the graph of the solution.

Answer 1

ok....you need to take 1 to the other side of the equation or in other word subtract 1 from both sides

Answer 2

so u have -3x > 3

Answer 3

now u need to divide both sides by -3 so that u will have x alone on one side of the equation

Answer 4

when u divide by a negative, the inequality is reversed....so u get x < -3

Answer 5

to graph your solution, u need to draw the number line and shade the region x < -3
