Answer:

u<6

Solution:

  • In order to solve this inequality, we need to divide both sides by 7.
  • Remember, our goal is to find the value of u.
  • We know that 7u is less than 42.
  • So, divide both sides by 7:
  • u<6
  • So u is less than 6.
  • This also means that the numbers less than 6 will satisfy the inequality (make it true).

Hope it helps.
