Question

Solve:-5 > 4 - 9x or 4 > 10 + x

Answer 1

-5>4-9x

As a first step, simplify both sides of the inequality:

-5>-9x+4

Then, you can flip the equation:

-9x+4<-5

Now, you have to subtract 4 from both sides of the inequality

-9x+4-4<-5-4

-9x<-9

As a final step, divide both sides by -9:

-9x/-9<-9/-9

x>1
