Question

HEELLLLPPP MEE PLEASE!!!
Solve 3(t - 2) > 4(2t + 11).

A. t > -10
B. t > 1.8
C. t < 1.8
D. t < -10

Answer 1

Multiply it all out first:
3(t - 2) > 4( 2t +11)
3t-6 > 8t +44
Now you need to combine like terms:
3t - 6 > 8t + 44
+6 +6
----------------
3t > 8t +50
-8t -8t
-----------
-5t > 50
--------
-5
t < -10
(The sign was flipped because every time you multiply or divide by a negative, it flips)

Answer 2

First, use the distributive property on both sides to get rid of parentheses.
