a) To solve the equation ax+15=44, we can isolate the variable x by subtracting 15 from both sides of the equation:
ax + 15 - 15 = 44 - 15
ax = 29
To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by a:
x = 29 / a
b) To solve the inequality ax−44<15, we can isolate the variable x by adding 44 to both sides of the inequality:
ax - 44 + 44 < 15 + 44
ax < 59
To solve for x, divide both sides of the inequality by a:
x < 59 / a
