Answer 8

np

Answer 9

@geerky42 what about this one?
its harder because it has multiple parts
would it be like

8P + 2 > 3P - 15
8P+3P>15-2
11P>13?

Answer 10

to get 3P to other side, you just subtract 3P from both sides

do the same for 2

So you have: \( 8P+2 > 3P-15\\
8P + 2 \color{red}{-3P}> 3P \color{red}{-3P} - 15 \\
8P -3P + 2 > - 15 \\
8P - 3P + 2 \color{red}{-2} > - 15 \color{red}{-2}\\
8P - 3P > - 15 -2\\\)

Answer 11

treat it just like an equals sign, you know how to do it. The only time it differs is if you are dividing by a negative

Answer 12

okay so would it be P>-2.6 or 2.6?

Answer 13

@geerky42 @FibonacciChick666

Answer 14

show me your steps

Answer 15

well I just finished geerky's steps above the
8P+2>3P-15
8P+2-3P>3P-3P-15
5P+2-2>-15-2

Answer 16

do the last few too

Answer 17

i just saw what I did wrong i made the -15 into -13 and not -17 so the answer should be -3.4
5P>-17 P=-3.4

Answer 18

Answer 19

yes
