i need help one last time: q + 12 - 2(q - 22) > 0

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

please i have been on this assignment for 3 hours.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this a multiple choice question?

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

no

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

i need to show the steps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are you supposed to solve for q?

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

since that's the only variable probably

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so start out with PEMDAS Distribute -2 with q and -22.

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

ok so -2q - 44?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

positive 44 since its a negative times a negative.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so add 44 and 12.

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

oh ok what about the -2q?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

q<56 is the final answer after simplifying things. Your goal is to simplify the equation then isolate the variable

OpenStudy (coolguy34):

oh ok
