Question

-10|n+6| < -10
What are the steps to solve this?

Answer 1

Answer: n < -7 and n > -5

Explanation:

-10|n+6| < -10

first divide by -10 on both sides

`(-10|n+6|)/(-10)` <
`(-10)/(-10)`

since we are dividing, we have to flip the sign

|n+6| > 1

subtract the absolute value of 6

You are left with n < -7 and n > -5
