Question

Inequality- tell me what im doing wrong?
-5x+10<25
so I subtract both sides by 10.
-5x<15
then I divide both sides by -5.
the answer I got was x>-3.

Answer 1

when you multiply or divide by a -ve, the inequality sign flips

Answer 2

you aren't doing anything wrong

Answer 3

The answer I got wasn't right, so there has to be something im doing wrong /:

Answer 4

the answer is correct though

any number you plug in which is greater than -3 will solve the equation

which is exactly the answer you got

Answer 5

unless the question isn't asking you to solve for x, and it's asking you for something else

Answer 6

no its asking for a solution to inequality

Answer 7

well the solution to that inequality is x > -3

unless it means like, a single solution or something... like x = -2 or x=-1 etc.

Answer 8

well thank you,

Answer 9

sorry i cant help any further!
