Question

8 solution yes or no-4 solution yes or no-5 solution yes or no2 solution yes or no

Answer 1

We want to know whether the numbers 8, -4, -5 and 2 are solutions of the inequality:

$-34>8x-2$

We will solve the inequality, and then we will find if each one of the values are solutions. For doing so, we will clear out the variable x.

$\begin{gathered} -34+2>8x \\ -32>8x \\ -\frac{32}{8}>x \\ -4>x \end{gathered}$

This means that all the values less than -4 are solutions of the inequality.

Thus: 8, -4 and 2 are NOT solutions, but -5 is a solution.
