I have to solve this inequality, but i forget how to do it. I remember your supposed to do something special when your like subtracting a negative from both sides? Y-5>-6
Someone answer my question, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks, EMILY:)
Nothing special happens when you add or subtract with inequations.
You are thinking about multiplying and dividing by negatives
If you multiply or divide each term of an inequation by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign
e.g.
3x > 12
x > 4
but
-5x < 25
x > -5
for yours
Y-5>-6 just add 5 to both sides
y > -6 + 5
y > -1
To solve the inequality y - 5 > -6, you can follow these steps:
Step 1: Add 5 to both sides of the inequality to isolate y.
(y - 5) + 5 > -6 + 5
This simplifies to:
y > -1
Step 2: Simplify the inequality as much as possible.
The inequality y > -1 tells us that y is greater than -1.
Therefore, the solution to the given inequality is y > -1.
