10x<40

-10y<40
10z<-40

1 answer

Let's solve the inequalities one by one:

  1. For the inequality \(10x < 40\): \[ x < \frac{40}{10} \] \[ x < 4 \]

  2. For the inequality \(-10y < 40\): To isolate \(y\), we first divide both sides by \(-10\). Remember that when you divide by a negative number, you flip the inequality sign: \[ y > \frac{40}{-10} \] \[ y > -4 \]

  3. For the inequality \(10z < -40\): \[ z < \frac{-40}{10} \] \[ z < -4 \]

So the solutions to the inequalities are:

  • \(x < 4\)
  • \(y > -4\)
  • \(z < -4\)
