Solve the inequality and show your work:

\[ 6n - 3 > -18 \]

Asked by adventure15

Answer (3)

6n-3>-18 add 3 to both sides to get: 6n>-15 divide -15 by 6: n>-2.5

The solution to the inequality -18"> 6 n − 3 > − 18 is -2.5"> n > − 2.5 , which can be expressed in interval notation as ( − 2.5 , ∞ ) . This means that any number greater than − 2.5 will satisfy the inequality. Checking with a value like − 2 confirms the solution is correct.
