Solve the inequality for u.

9<3u-15

Simplify your answer as much as possible.

1 answer

To solve the inequality \( 9 < 3u - 15 \), follow these steps:

  1. Add 15 to both sides: \[ 9 + 15 < 3u \] \[ 24 < 3u \]

  2. Divide both sides by 3: \[ \frac{24}{3} < u \] \[ 8 < u \]

  3. Rearranging for clarity: \[ u > 8 \]

The solution to the inequality is: \[ u > 8 \]
