To solve the inequality -3p + 18 < 9, you need to isolate the variable p.
First, subtract 18 from both sides of the inequality:
-3p + 18 - 18 < 9 - 18
This simplifies to:
-3p < -9
Next, divide both sides of the inequality by -3. Since we are dividing by a negative number, the direction of the inequality symbol should be reversed:
(-3p)/(-3) > (-9)/(-3)
This simplifies to:
p > 3
So the solution to the inequality is p > 3.
Solve the following inequality: -3p+18<9
