anonymous · Answer

The inequality sign is missing above..

anonymous · Answer

< with a line under

anonymous · Answer

Bring 17 over (29-17). Then divide both sides by (-4) DONT forget to switch the sign when you divide by a negative number.

anonymous · Answer

Post what you get and I'll see if it's right.

anonymous · Answer

anonymous · Answer

No problem. Trick to inequality: treat them like regular equations but just watch out for those tricky negative numbers and switching signs.

anonymous · Answer

Perfect

anonymous · Answer

yayyy :)

anonymous · Answer

You can always check to see if you're right by plugging in a number, greater than what you got, and less than what you got, to see if the inequality is satisfied.

anonymous · Answer

And a tip for when writing inequalities online: just write >= or <= and people will understand what you mean.
