solve just like an equation:
m-7<6
m<6+7
m<13
do the other two the same way
a number: x
Five less than a number: x-5
Five less than a number is at least nine: x-5 >= 9
Solve Each inequality.
1. m-7<6
m<-1
m>1
m<13
m<-13
2. x+4.5>5.5
x>10
x>1
x>0.1
x<1 (there was a _ underneath all of the <'s in that question)
3. p+12>9
p>21
p>3
p>-21
p>-3
4. Translate the following statement into an inequality: Five less than a number is at least nine.
x-5>9
x-9>5
x-5>9
x-5<9 (there was a _ underneath the first and last answer for the question)
