What's the Subtraction Property of Inequality?

What is the Subtraction Property of Inequality?

Summary

  1. 'a', 'b', and 'c' are just variables representing numbers here
  2. We subtract 'c' as a way of showing how the Subtraction Property of Inequality works

Notes

    1. 'a', 'b', and 'c' are just variables representing numbers here
    1. 'a', 'b', and 'c' are just variables representing numbers here
    2. 'minus c' is necessary since this is a subtraction property!
    1. 'c' is just a variable representing a number here
    1. 'a', 'b', and 'c' are just variables representing numbers here
    1. 'c' is just a variable representing a number here
    1. Inequality signs "point" to either the left or to the right, that is what is meant by 'direction'
    2. Multiplication or division, on the other hand, may reverse the direction of an inequality if a negative number is involved
