✔ 最佳答案
1) Divide both sides by -3
-3x/-3 < 21/-3 (Don't forget to switch signs!)
Solve for x
x > -7

2) Subtract both sides by 3
3-3+5x < 18-3
Substitute
5x < 15
Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 < 15/5
Solve for x
x < 3

3) Divide both sides by -5
-5y/-5 > 13/-5 (Don't forget to switch signs!)
Solve for y
y < -13/5 or 2 3/5

Hope that helps!

1)
-3x < 21
x > 21/-3
x > -7

2)
3 + 5x < 18
5x < 18 - 3
x < 15/5
x < 3

3)
-5y > 13
y < 13/-5
y < -2 3/5 (-2.6)

- 3x < 21
x > - 7

3 + 5x < 18
5x < 15
x < 3

- 5y > 13
y < - 13/5

...............???? u have big problem here ...
-3x - 21 < 0
5x +3 -18<0
.........................
-5y -13> 0
......................
so.
-3x - 21 < 0
5x +3 -18<0
=====>
-3x - 21 < 0
5x -15 < 0 +
.........................
2x - 36 <0 =
x < 18..........................................1
and for -5y -13> 0 ===>
-5y > 13
y > -13/5
thats all
i hopp this help u

-3x < 21
-x < 21/3
-x < 7
x > -7

3+5x < 18
5x < 15
x < 3

therefore -7 < x < 3

-5y > 13
-y > 13/5
y < -13/5

for every one you want to get x or y all by itself

the first one-all you do is divide by three, and since you are dividing by a negative switch the less then to greater then, x>-7

for the second one-subtract the three from both sides, 5x<15, then divide by 5 and get x<3

last one-divide by -5 and since its a negative switch the sign, y<-13/5

hope this helped

x=21/3
x=7
8x=18
18/8=x=9/4
y=13/5
y=2.6
2008-04-13 11:27 pm
-3x < 21
divide both sides by 3
-x < 7
x > -7

3+5x < 18
5x < 15
x < 3

-5y > 13
-y > 13/5
y < -13/5
