OpenStudy (dancergirl45):

Hi!!

OpenStudy (defiance):

I don't think I can help really. I'm not positive

OpenStudy (defiance):

I don't wanna lead you wrong.

OpenStudy (dancergirl45):

OK no problem thanks for trying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think it is A

OpenStudy (dancergirl45):

Ok thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the reason I say that is when you have -ax+3b>5 you have to get x all on its own so subtract 3b from both sides and you get -ax>5-3b then you divide by the negative which is understood as a -1. so then you get ax> -5+3b. and finally you divide by a and you get x>3b-5 over a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is definitely A

OpenStudy (dancergirl45):

Ok thank you so much! You were such a big help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem I gave answer and explanation
