Solve the inequality for v.

Question

-19 + 8/5v > -3
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 1

To solve the inequality, we will first isolate the term with the variable on one side of the inequality.

-19 + 8/5v > -3

Let's start by adding 19 to both sides to get rid of the constant term on the left side:

-19 + 8/5v + 19 > -3 + 19

Simplifying, we have:

8/5v > 16

Next, let's multiply both sides of the inequality by 5/8 to isolate the variable v:

(5/8)(8/5v) > (5/8)(16)

Simplifying, we have:

v > 10

So the solution to the inequality is v > 10.
