Which of the following is in the solution set of the inequality –28 < v – 16

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.−28<v−16
Step 1: Flip the equation.v−16>−28
Step 2: Add 16 to both sides.v−16+16>−28+16
v>−12
v>−12

You haven't mentioned what 'the following' are...

Anyway:
-28 < v - 16

Add 16 to both sides of the inequality:
-12 < v

So we know that v must be a number larger than -12

Hope it helped :)

The linear equation is: y=ax+b
