Solve for b.

Question

13–b<7

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 13 - b < 7 \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract 13 from both sides: \[ -b < 7 - 13 \] This simplifies to: \[ -b < -6 \]

2. To solve for \( b \), multiply both sides by -1. Remember that when you multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, you need to reverse the inequality sign: \[ b > 6 \]

So, the solution is: \[ b > 6 \]
