Question

Does anyone know how to do 9 and 10 ???

Answer 1

9.2x-9<7
add 9 to both sides, 2x<16
divide both sides by 2, x<8
A.

10.n<5
-4n+11>-9 Subtract 11 from both sides
-4n>-20 then, divide both sides by -4
In these greather than less than equations, when you divide a negative by another negative, you must flip the sign
so that would be, n<5
D

Answer 2

9) 2x - 9 < 7

Add 9 to both sides.

2x < 7 + 9

Simplify.

2x < 16

Divide both sides by 2.

x < 8

10) Go through each answer choice & check.

a) 4n + 11 > -9

Subtract 11 from both sides.

4n > -9 - 11

Simplify.

4n > -20

Divide both sides by 4.

n > -5

(a) is incorrect.

b) 4n + 11 < -9

Subtract 11 from both sides.

4n < -9 - 11

Simplify.

4n < -20

Divide both sides by 4.

n < 5

(b) is incorrect

c) -4n + 11 <-9

Subtract 11 from both sides.

-4n < -9 - 11

Simplify.

-4n < -20

Divide both sides by -4.

n > 5

(c) is incorrect

d) -4n + 11 > -9

Subtract 11 from both sides.

-4n > -9 - 11

Simplify.

-4n > -20

Divide both sides by -4.

n < 5

(d) is correct
