Solve for j. -2 > j - 4 > -18 Write your answer as a compound inequality with integers. Choices: (A)-6 > j > -22 (B)2 > j > -22 (C)2 > j > -14 (D)-6 > j > -14

Perform Addition: Now, we do the addition. 2 > j > -14Reverse Inequality Signs: We need to reverse the inequality signs because it's more common to have the variable on the left side. j -14Final Compound Inequality: So, the compound inequality is -14 < j < 2. This matches with one of the choices.

Q. Solve for

j

\newline

-2 > j - 4 > -18

\newline

Write your answer as a compound inequality with integers.

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)

-6 > j > -22

\newline

(B)

2 > j > -22

\newline

(C)

2 > j > -14

\newline

(D)

-6 > j > -14

Perform Addition: Now, we do the addition. 2 > j > -14
Reverse Inequality Signs: We need to reverse the inequality signs because it's more common to have the variable on the left side. $\newline$ j < 2 and j > -14
Final Compound Inequality: So, the compound inequality is -14 < j < 2. This matches with one of the choices.
