I am not sure if I have this problems correct so someone please help! -2(2x+9)>-4x+9 -4x-18>-4x+9 +4x +4x 0x-18>9 Because I got 0x this mean that the problem is never ture. Correct?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

you're correct, but the reason is not correct

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

-2(2x+9)>-4x+9 -4x-18>-4x+9 +4x +4x 0x-18>9 -18 > 9 FALSE

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

-18 is on FAAAR left side of 9 on number line. so -18 is never greater than 9
