Example

a⋅(b-2)=3b

3(r+2s)=2t-4

a⋅(b-2)=3b

Question

$$4 a + 2 \gt - 10$$

Solve for a

$a>-3$

Solution Steps

Subtract $2$ from both sides.

$$4a>-10-2$$

Subtract $2$ from $-10$ to get $-12$.

$$4a>-12$$

Divide both sides by $4$. Since $4$ is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

$$a>\frac{-12}{4}$$

Divide $-12$ by $4$ to get $-3$.

$$a>-3$$
