Question

Help!!! Medal :)

-7y - 17 > 11

Part 1: Solve the inequality above.
Part 2: Describe the graph of the solution.

Answer 1

add 17 to both sides 17+11

Answer 2

You want to get y by itself

Start by adding 17 to both sides

Answer 3

you should get 28 then divide -7y by both sides

Answer 4

you should have y>-4

Answer 5

^that isn't correct, you forgot a key step

Answer 6

what?

Answer 7

well this part isn't correct either "then divide -7y by both sides" you don't divide by -7y...

and when you you divide by a negative, the direction of the inequality sign changes.

Answer 8

oh ya forgot that part, so its y<-4

Answer 9

lol thanks guys :)

Answer 10

and the graph should be a dotted line too with -4 being the y intercept :)

Answer 11

open circle because it's a < sign (not also equals to) and y has to be less than -4, so arrow going left

Answer 12

ok got it thanks :)
