Solve the inequality for u .

Question

4u+9<57
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( 4u + 9 < 57 \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract 9 from both sides: \[ 4u < 57 - 9 \] \[ 4u < 48 \]

2. Divide both sides by 4: \[ u < \frac{48}{4} \] \[ u < 12 \]

The solution to the inequality is: \[ u < 12 \]
