Question

Part A: Solve −mk − 90 > 85 for m. Show your work. (4 points) Part B: Solve 3c − 5f = 55 for f. Show your work. (6 points) (10 points)

Answer 1

m < -175/k

f = -11 +
`(3)/(5)`c

Explanation:

Part A:

-mk - 90 > 85

add 90 to each side to get:

-mk > 175

divide each side by -k to get:

m < -175/k

(inequality symbol switched because we divided by a negative)

Part B:

3c - 5f = 55

subtract 3c from each side to get:

-5f = 55 - 3c

divide each side by -5 to get:

f = -(55 - 3c) / 5 or -11 +
`(3)/(5)`c
