How did you get 4b >-1+3?

nuttyliaczar · Answer

I think you messed up because of signs. You should be adding 1 to both sides not subtracting it @Ashtaroth

nuttyliaczar · Answer

But you can also move the 3 over like Lyn did

anonymous · Answer

Oh, was wondering how she got that.

lynfran · Answer

Do you understand?

anonymous · Answer

I understand. I'll re-post give me a sec

anonymous · Answer

Not sure how you got the positive 3 though?

lynfran · Answer

I add 3 to both side of the inequality 
4b-3+3>-1+3
and -3+3 is the same as 3-3 which=0
so 4b remains
we get 4b>-1+3   ..note (-1+3) can also be written as 3-1 which equal 2
we then divide both sides by 4 to slove for b
we get 4b/4>2/4....
b>1/2
