Solve the open sentence. –3 ≤ n + 6 ≤ 7 A. n ≤ –9 and n ≤ 6 B. n ≥ –9 and n ≤ 1 C. n ≤ 3 and n ≤ 7 D. n ≥ 9 and n ≤ 7
The only step you need to do here is to isolate the variable. Do you have any idea how you'd do that?
not really
can you help me peaz
Sure. All need to do to remove something being added to a variable in an algebraic equation is to subtract the same number from all sides. In this case, there's three to subtract it from.
how do you do that
Allow me to give you an example.
|dw:1401326594921:dw|
-3<n<1 - -
Keep in mind the rule "What you do to one side [of an algebraic equation] must be done to all other sides". you did the right side correctly, but you left the left side as it was before you should have subtracted 6.
b
Correct!
thx what grade are you in im in 8th going to 9th
wow are you home school or no
Nope. I just hated my math instructors, and frankly, I figured I could teach in a way that made more sense to students than your book's methods. I found mine when I did everything the long, complicated way, so I thought I could share, over time, my methods.
cool so your almost like a mentor yeah keep on living :p
I shall certainly try! By the way, if you feel I've helped, please leave a testimonial for me. It really helps! Thanks!
i sent a message to you
I got it, I was just taking care of something else. And don't worry, I shan't!
kay have a wonderful day
