Homework Statement
##\frac{a}{4}>\frac{a}{2}+6##
The Attempt at a Solution
##\frac{2a}{2}>\frac{4a+48}{2}##
##a>2a+24##
So do I just plug random numbers in and see what I get? I realized right away that it has to be a negative number so I stuck in -30 and got
##-30>-60+24## Well that's true.
##-24>-48+24## This is false.
So ##a<-24## is this correct? Am I going about these the right way?
