How are arithmetic sequences related to linear functions?

Solve the equation -9p - 17 =10 a -3 b. 16 c. 18 d -16

Which statements describe the solutions to the inequality x< -20 check all that apply. there are infinite solutions. each solution is negative. each solution is positive. the solutions are both positive and negative. the solutions contain only integer values. the solutions contain rational number values.

Write a description of each inequality. 1. -5a + 3 > 1 2. 27 - 2b < -6 (this < has a _ under it) 3. 1/2 (c + 1) > 5 (this > has a _ under it)
