Question

What is the solution to the inequality 28 > 4 – 2p?

p
p
p < 12

Answer 1

The answer is

p

Explanation:

`28 > 4 – 2p`

Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation

That's

`28 - 4 > 4 - 4 - 2p \\ 24 > - 2p`

Divide both sides by - 2

`(24)/( - 2) > ( - 2p)/( - 2) \\ p < - 12`

Since the denominator was negative the sign will change

We have the final answer as

p > - 12
