To solve the equation ax + 15 = 44 for x, we can start by subtracting 15 from both sides of the equation:
ax + 15 - 15 = 44 - 15
ax = 29
Next, to solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by a:
ax/a = 29/a
x = 29/a
So the solution to the equation is x = 29/a.
To solve the inequality ax - 44 < 15, we can start by adding 44 to both sides of the inequality:
ax - 44 + 44 < 15 + 44
ax < 59
Next, to solve for x, we divide both sides of the inequality by a:
ax/a < 59/a
x < 59/a
So the solution to the inequality is x < 59/a.
