\

The inequality is $\"\"$ .

\

Apply subtraction property of inequality: Subtract 4 from each side.

\

$\"\"$

\

$\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Commutative property: a + b = b + a)

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Additive identity property: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Multiply each side by negative one and flip the symbol)

\

$\"\"$ (Product of two same signs is positive)

\

Graph the solution set on a number line

\

$\"number$

\

Note: A dot means that this point is included in the solution set. $\"\"$

\

Check:

\

To check, substitute 7 a number less than 7 in $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute: r = 7)

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ )

\

The inequality is true. $\"\"$

\

The inequality solution is $\"\"$ .
