n/-3 + 5 > 4 MEDAL AND FAN :) PLEASE HELP!

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

Answer: n<3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this implies n/-3>4-5 this implies n/-3>-1 Multiply both sides by -3 and hence the inequality becomes n<3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you explain that in a more simple way for me to understand. Please :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when the inequality is multiplied by a negative number, it changes the direction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

at first i added-5 on both sides

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

n / -3 + 5 > 4 -1 / 3n + 5 >4 -1/3n + 5-5 > 4 -5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it became n/-3>4-5=-1

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

-1/3n > -1 -1/3n divided by -1/3 > -1 divided by -1/3

OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):

So the answer becomes: N < 3
