-3y+6<-15 plz help me

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

First subtract 6 on both sides. -3y<-21

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Next divide by -3 on both sides. y<7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

That is how you solve for y.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so y would be 7??

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

No. y<7. y would be less than 7.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 5?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

That is one of the many solutions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 5 is the answer right or am i wrong

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

5 is the answer. So is any number which is less than 7.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then how would u do that on graph the solution on a number line. <--------------->

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

<-------------------------------------------------> -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ To the left.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that how im supoose to write it ?

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Yes. Put an open circle on 7 and shade the line to the left.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so draw a circle ? then what srry im really bad at this stuff lol

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

That's it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh thank you

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Do you want to know how to graph it. @edkasugifdfhdfhd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Go to this website. https://www.desmos.com/calculator

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Type in your equation and you will get the line graphed.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thx

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

This is the line graphed. Remember it is not < or equal to or > greater than or equal to. So it will have a dotted line. It will be shaded downwards. http://prntscr.com/4z2swd

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

@edkasugifdfhdfhd That website helped me a lot when I was taking Algebra 1 and Algebra 2.

OpenStudy (confluxepic):

Good luck.
