Explanation:
We can add 3 to each side of an inequality without effecting the validity or orientation of the inequality.
Things you can do with expressions in an inequality which maintain the inequality orientation:
- Add the same amount to each expression
- Subtract the same amount from each expression
- Divide each expression by the same amount provided the amount is greater than zero
- Multiply each expression by the same amount provided the amount is greater than zero
Things you can do with expressions in an inequality which reverse the inequality orientation.
- Divide each expression by the same amount when the amount is less than zero
- Multiply each expression by the same amount when the amount is less than zero
