TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

It is an ineuquality

OpenStudy (ageta):

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step. 2y+9<25 Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides. 2y+9−9<25−9 2y<16 Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):

sammixboo (sammixboo):

All we need to do is get the variable alone. To do that we must first subtract 9 on both sides of the equation and then divide 2 on both sides of the equation, so therefore we have: 2y + 9 - 9 < 25 - 9 2y < 25 - 9 Can you tell me what is 25 - 9?

sammixboo (sammixboo):

I am having some lag ;(

sammixboo (sammixboo):

One favor guys :P Make sure to explain the problem and guide the user to the answer instead of giving out the answer! Here is why... 1) If you explain and guide the user to the answer, the user can use that information/guidance to help with future problems and won't have as many questions. 2) It is against the CoC :P

OpenStudy (ageta):

me

TheSmartOne (thesmartone):
