ok one moment

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Let's just focus on \(\Large x+y < 1\) for now.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Do you know how to isolate y?

OpenStudy (iluvsoccer):

Not sure :/ i think make the x a 0?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if we had x+y = 1, then how would we solve for y?

OpenStudy (iluvsoccer):

make the x a 0? 0 + y = 1 then we subtract 0 from 1 which is -1

OpenStudy (iluvsoccer):

y= -1

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

why not subtract x from both sides? we want to keep the x intact. Do not replace x with any numbers

OpenStudy (iluvsoccer):

how do you do that?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

we start with this |dw:1479791371561:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

subtract x from both sides |dw:1479791402442:dw|
