The property of inequality that justifies the math in Step 2 is the Subtraction Property of Inequality. This property states that you can subtract the same value from both sides of an inequality without changing the direction of the inequality. In Step 2, you are subtracting 42 from both sides of the inequality.
2. What property of inequality can justify the math in Step 2?
Step 1:
−6(3w−7)>−66
−18w+42>−66
Step 2:
−18w+42−42>−66−42
−18w>−108
Step 3:
(−18w)−18>(−108)−18
w<6
