Question

Translate and solve. Graph the solution set on the number line and write the solution in interval notation. Six less than b is lower than -9.

Answer 1

`\begin{gathered} \text{translate the given into an expression} \\ \text{Six less than b is lower than -9} \\ \text{Six less than }b\text{ }\rightarrow b-6 \\ \text{is lower than -9}\rightarrow<-9 \\ \text{COmbine and we have} \\ b-6<-9 \\ \text{Solve for }b \\ b-6<-9 \\ b<-9+6 \\ b<-3 \end{gathered}`

Now that we know that b < -3, the inequality will look like
