Question

Solve for v.-3v + 16 > -7V - 8Write your answer with v first, followed by an inequality symbol.

Answer 1

The Solution.

The given equation is

`-3V+16>-7V-8`

Collecting the like terms, we have

`-3V+7V>-8-16`
`4V>-24`

Dividing both sides by 4, we get

`\begin{gathered} V>(-24)/(4) \\ \\ V>-6 \end{gathered}`

Thus, the correct answer is V > -6
