thts wht i figured t would be but im not entirely sure
OpenStudy (anonymous):
when you try to solve in equalities you must sfirst simplify the equation!

thts my only problem if it would be a negative or a positive
OpenStudy (anonymous):
then you will get 0<m+5
and this is only true when m is more than "-5"

if m is -5 then , you would get 0<0 ... but as you know 0 is not grater than zero ... when you plug in the value of -4 the you get 1 on the rhs and hence it it true for all nos greater and -5 ... ie numbers from (-4 to 99999999...)
