Question

For which value of n is this inequality true 600-n>465

Answer 1

The given inequality is:

`600-n>465`

Subtract 600 from both sides

`\begin{gathered} 600-n-600>465-600 \\ -n>-135 \end{gathered}`

Multiply both sides by -1 and change the inequality:

`\begin{gathered} (-1)(-n)>(-1)(-135) \\ n<135 \end{gathered}`

The inequality is true for n-values less than 135.
