Question

Determine the largest integer value of x in the solution of the following
inequality.
3x – 7 < -2

Answer 1

Answer:

The largest value of x will be $\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x-7<-2$

$3\frac{5}{3}-7<-2$    

$\frac{15}{3} -7<-2$      Always multiply whole number then numerator

$5-7<-2$       Statement is false so that means x has to be less than 5/3

So the largest value of x will be $\frac{4}{3}$
