Questions: Solve for q q-18<-5

Solution Steps

To solve the inequality \( q - 18 < -5 \), we need to isolate the variable \( q \). This can be done by adding 18 to both sides of the inequality.

We start with the given inequality: \[ q - 18 < -5 \]

To isolate \( q \), we add 18 to both sides of the inequality: \[ q - 18 + 18 < -5 + 18 \] \[ q < 13 \]
