I'm sorry, but we cannot teach courses here.

Please post the full and exact text of the exercise with which you are having difficulty, the complete instructions, and a clear listing of all of the steps you have tried thus far. By providing this information, you will enable the tutors to see what you are working on and where you are having trouble. Then they will be able to provide intelligent assistance.

Thank you.

sorry im a newb the problem is

tell what you must do to the first inequality to get the second

5z> -25;z> -5

what does it mean

-draco

This question is asking, " what operation was used to solve 5z > -25 and obtain the solution z > -5 ?" How do solve for z from 5z?

i dont understand what you are asking me? :shock:



i am really bad at math - draco

tell what you must do to the first inequality to get the second:
5z> -25;z> -5

So you're actually working on solving linear inequalities, rather than multiplying quadratics...?

To solve "5z = -25", divide through by 5.

To solve "5z > -25", divide through by 5.

i dont understand what you are asking me?

Does this mean that you don't know how to solve linear equations, either...?

Thank you.

thanks i get it now, but i have another question it says:

simplify the equation

-6(3x=4) now do i usee the distributive property
to group like terms to get
-6xsquared = 12x or ......please explain

 

[stapel]

but i have another question

Please post new questions as new threads, not as replies to old threads, where they tend to be overlooked. Thank you.

it says: simplify the equation

Really? You're not supposed to "simplify the expression" or "solve the equation"...?

Please proof the exercise before posting it (exactly), with its instructions and your work, as a new thread.

Thank you.
