5-y>4 right? minus 5 both sides, what do you have?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1 i though it was to be: y = 4 + 5

OpenStudy (loser66):

type the whole thing, please. take steps and I show you something else

OpenStudy (loser66):

do it., you are not right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok 5 - y > 4

OpenStudy (loser66):

minus 5 both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5 - 5 - y > 4 - 5 y > -1

OpenStudy (loser66):

wrong, where is minus sign in the front of y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-y > -1 ?

OpenStudy (loser66):

yup, now time -1 both sides, what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait how do i time -1 on both sides?, i mean why?

OpenStudy (loser66):

just do it,

OpenStudy (loser66):

because you have -y , you didn't have y yet, by doing that, you get y,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok -y x -1 > -1 x -1 1y > 1 y > 1 / 1 y > 1

OpenStudy (loser66):

I am sorry, that's wrong, when you time an inequality by a NEGATIVE number, you MUST change the sign backward. that means y <1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it becomes y < 1
