Question

What are the steps needed in 9 - c < 2 ??

Answer 1

9 - c < 2

1. Subtract 9 from both sides. Please post what you get, @leogrrl01

Answer 2

Yes, but, when you subtract 9 from both sides you get c < -7. The answer is c < 7, not -7.

Answer 3

Don't worry about the answer at this moment. Think about how to get the answer.
Look at this.

9 - c < 2
-9 -9
------------

-c < -7

Answer 4

To solve for c, multiply both sides of (-c < -7) by (-1).

Answer 5

Oh sorry, I know the answer from my test. I need to know the steps.

Answer 6

Your reply shows -7, not 7

Answer 7

Two minus Nine = Negative Seven.

Nine minus Two = Seven

Answer 8

I think we're done here.

Answer 9

We get this: -c < -7

(-1) * (-c) > (-1) * (-7)

c > 7 ---> Answer.

Note that the order of the inequality symbol flipped from less than to greater than. That happen when multiplying a linear inequality by a negative number.

Answer 10

We are not done if the supposed correct answer is this: The answer is c < 7.
