Question

How do i solve 8 > 3 + t/4

Answer 1

t < 20.

Explanation:

1. Write the expression.

`8 > 3 + (t)/(4)`

2. Subtract 3 from both sides of the inequation.

`8-3 > 3 + t/4-3\\ \\5 > (t)/(4)`

3. Multiply both sides by 4.

`5*4 > (t)/(4)*4\\ \\20 > t\\ \\t < 20`

4. Verify the answer.

`8 > 3 + (20)/4\\ \\8 > 3 + 5\\ \\8 > 8`

That's correct! Hence, t < 20 is the correct answer.
