Linear inequalities: solve for y

Full solution

Q. Write the following inequality in slope-intercept form.

\newline

5x + y < -8

\newline

Write your answer with

y

first, followed by an inequality symbol. Use integers, proper fractions, and improper fractions in simplest form.

\newline

______

Definition of Slope-intercept form: Slope-intercept form is $y = mx + b$ , where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the $y$ -intercept.
Isolating $y$ by Subtracting $5x$ : Subtract $5x$ from both sides to isolate $y$ : $5x + y - 5x < -8 - 5x$ .
Simplifying the Inequality: Simplify the inequality to get $y < -5x - 8$ .

Jack is fixing up his home and must spend less than

\$4,800

to hire carpenters and painters. Carpenters charge

\$60

per hour and painters charge

\$32

\newline

Select the inequality in standard form that describes this situation. Use the given numbers and the following variables.

\newline

x =

the number of hours of carpentry

\newline

y =

the number of hours of painting

\newline

\newline

32x + 60y < 4,800

\newline

60x + 32y < 4,800

\newline

32x - 60y < 4,800

\newline

60x - 32y < 4,800
