Question

3p-9>4p-1

Answer 1

Hey

Answer 2

combine like terms, what do you get?

Answer 3

4p-3p = 1p
then add 1 to both sides

Answer 4

10 > 1p
when dividing you must switch signs
p < 10

Answer 5

isnt only when its negative?

Answer 6

oh yes

Answer 7

so p > 10

Answer 8

i'm lost. where do you get 4p-3p = 1p. i get the 4p-3p, but where does the 1p come from?

Answer 9

its the same thing as p

Answer 10

also, it's greater than or equal to, not just greater than.

Answer 11

Answer 12

Answer 13

Answer 14

ok. i will. but back to this problem...

Answer 15

it was originally:

3(p-3)>=4p-1

Answer 16

distribute

Answer 17

so that would be 3p-9>=4p-1

Answer 18

3p-9>=4p-1
4p-3p = 1p
+1 to the -9
so you have 1p > = -8

Answer 19
