Hey I am trying do Question 7 part (d) from the 1995 paper, Can someone please post up some working please I have managed to get it to isolate V^2 but don't understand what happens to the equality and the inequality.

Thankyou very much

you have to substitute v^2 from previous expression as well i just got lost in the algebra and how to determine the inequalities direction

My apologies, misread q
its all good man, no worries, do you know how to get an answer but?

From c you showed v^2 => ... Now if LHS=...*v^2 , it follows LHS must be =>...*v^2. Sorry im on my phone

All good I figured it out I was making it harder for myself by subbing in V^2 in an awkward position, thankyou for your help

Are you asking why you need to sub in v^2?
no I was trying to figure out what was happening with the inequaility, but i got it, i know why i have to sub in v^2
