ways to check your answer
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=3y-20-y%3D6-3y-6&dataset=
go to wolframalpha and type your equation
so 1st one is correct
the second one is wrong... when you divide by a negative you have to change the direction of the sign
how is the second one wrong? I divide -3 by 15 and get 5. and keep the greater than equal to sign...right??
