Question

Which number line represents the solution to 5x < 30? F t 8 0 2 4 6 10 G =N + 4 H 8 0 6 10 H + 0 + 8 2 4 6 10 J + 2 + 4 0 6 8 10

Answer 1

Answer:

Line H, the third option

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the value of x

• 5x < 30

• Divide both sides by 5
• 5x/5 < 30/5
• x < 6

X is strictly less than 6, so the answer cannot include 6

• This means the answer needs to have an open circle as an endpoint

The less than sign (<) tells you the line should be pointing to the left
