Answer 7

omfg...I love inequality. give me one second

Answer 8

omfg!! YAY! ur my new best friend lol

Answer 9

okay so you start out with
6y – 8 ≤ 10 right?

Answer 10

right.

Answer 11

i'm gonna walk you through this

Answer 12

great lol

Answer 13

you have to try and isolate the 6y. so you'd do this.
6y – 8 ≤ 10
+8 +8

since the 8+8 cancels each other out, you are left with
6y ≤ 18
divide 18 by 6 and you get?

Answer 14

WOAH like how do they cancel out each other? (/./)

Answer 15

because -8 plus 8= 0. it's negative because it's 6y MINUS 8. When doing inequalities the subtraction symbol makes whatever that is to the right of it a negative. does that make sense?

Answer 16

yeah :P

Answer 17

my teacher taught me that really all your doing is putting an = sign where the ≤ . don't let it freak you out. it's simply just solving for Y. like you'd do if you had 2+x=4. you'd subtract 2 from 4 and get your answer.

Answer 18

ohhh psssh i get it! :0

Answer 19

see :) that simple. do you know how you would do it if it was a plus sign?

Answer 20

yes so like..
6y – 8 ≤ 10 6y ≤ 10 +8 6y ≤ 18 y ≤ 18/6 y ≤ 3

Answer 21

if you have to show your work just show your work the same way I typed it out.

Answer 22

ahh ok :P welp thanks :)

Answer 23

when you're canceling the -8+8 draw a line through it, that shows you canceled it out

Answer 24

yep np c:
