OpenStudy (3mar):

Sorry can you simplify these two inequalities?

OpenStudy (meganhall):

idk

OpenStudy (3mar):

the 1st one: 8<2b divide by 2 both sides 4<b ok?

OpenStudy (meganhall):

ok

OpenStudy (3mar):

can you do the same thing for the 2nd?

OpenStudy (meganhall):

yes

OpenStudy (meganhall):

i really dont know

OpenStudy (3mar):

2b+18<8 firstly: subtract 18 from both sides can you?

OpenStudy (meganhall):

no

OpenStudy (meganhall):

@mhchen

OpenStudy (3mar):

We just need b in one side alone HOW CAN WE DO THAT?

OpenStudy (3mar):

I know the answer but I want you to be guided to it not given it

OpenStudy (mhchen):

For the first one: 8 < 2b (8/2) < b <-- Divide both sides by 2 For the second one: 2b + 18 < 8 2b < 8 - 18 <-- subtracted both sides by 18 2b < -10 <-- simplified b < (-10/2) <-- divide both sides by 2

OpenStudy (meganhall):

ok
