are you needing to solve the questions 1-5?
yes
Solve and graph the inequalities
so take the first problem: d - 1 > -3 and d + 2 < 5 treat inequalities like = signs, and just solve for the variable, in our case its d so d-1=-3, move the -1 over by adding 1 to each side, now it becomes d=-2, and replace the = sign with the original > sign and... d>-2 make sense?
kind of. still a little confused.
@DemolisionWolf
@shamil98 can you help me?
d - 1 > -3 add 1 to both sides, you want to isolate d. d>-2 your graph would be everything to the right of -2 and open circle on -2.
@shamil98 so all I do is add or subtract them?
Yes, you want to isolate d.
for -3k + 7 > -5 however you have to subtract and divide -3k >-12 when dividing or multiplying by negative numbers you change the > < symbols k < 4
okay I'm trying to work it out so I cam make sure I got it
okay I think I got it. them when I graph it, just put it on the points?
you graph inequalities like these on a number line
