Write the solution to the inequality in set-builder notation. 5r + 8 < 63

OpenStudy (anonymous):

move your constant terms to one side and the variables to the other side first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5r+8 < 63 5r<63-8 5r< 55 r>55/5 r>11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

These are the choices. {r | r < 11} {r | r < 15} {r | r < 71} {r | r < 8}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't forget to switch the side when your dividing at the end

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you only switch the inequality if you are dividing by a negative?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, lol never mind about switching the sign... i got a lil rusty there

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes nameless, your right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thus 5r <55 = r < 11

OpenStudy (anonymous):
