Given the inequality:
z + 17 < -4
Determine the solution that satisfies the inequality.
Solution.
The solution for the inequality can be determined by finding the value of z. This can be done, by transposing 17 on the other side of the equation. It must be taken to note, that in transposing a number, the sign will always change.
z + 17 < -4
z < -4 -17
z < -21
Final answer: z < -21
