Question

solve the following equation. then place the correct answer in the box provided. 2x 1 < 9

Answer 1

The answer to hear equation 2x 1 < 9 is X <4

Answer 2

Answer:

The solution of given inequality is x<4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let as consider the given inequality is

$2x+1<9$

Subtract 1 from both sides.

$2x+1-1<9-1$                     (Subtraction property of equality)

$2x<8$

Divide both sides by 2.

$\frac{2x}{2}<\frac{8}{2}$                    (Division property of equality)

$x<4$

Therefore the solution of given inequality is x<4.

(Note:- If the given equation is 2x+1=9, then the solution is x=4).
