Solve 23+10.9t>15.5t

$$23 + 10.9 t > 15.5 t$$

Solve for t

$$t<5$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 15.5t from both sides.

$$23+10.9t-15.5t>0$$

Combine 10.9t and -15.5t to get -4.6t.

$$23-4.6t>0$$

Subtract 23 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$-4.6t>-23$$

Divide both sides by -4.6. Since -4.6 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.

$$t<\frac{-23}{-4.6}$$

Expand \frac{-23}{-4.6} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$t<\frac{-230}{-46}$$

Divide -230 by -46 to get 5.

$$t<5$$
