Answer:
Explanation:
To find x:
1) Substitute 0 for y.
3x - 0 < 5
The zero doesn't really matter so you can get rid of it.
3x < 5
2) Divide by 3 to get x by itself
3x/3 < 5/3
x < 5/3
or
x < 1 2/3
To find y:
1) Substitute 0 for x.
3(0) - y < 5
3 times 0 equals zero so you can get rid of it.
-y < 5
2) There is an invisible 1 in front of the -y. So you divide by -1 to get y by itself.
-y/-1 < 5/-1
y < -5
