Question

consider the inequality -5(x+7) < -10 . Write an inequality representing the solution for x

Answer 1

Answer:

x > -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(x+7) < -10

Divide each side by -5, remembering to flip the inequality

-5/-5(x+7) > -10/-5

x+7> 2

Subtract 7 from each side

x+7-7 > 2-7

x > -5
