Answer 1

Answer: x > -1

===========================================

Work Shown:

-2x+3 < 5

-2x+3-3 < 5-3 ...... subtract 3 from both sides

-2x < 2

-2x/(-2) > 2/(-2) ..... divide both sides by -2; see note below

x > -1

note: the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number.

Answer 2

x>-1

Explanation:

-2x +3 < 5

Subtract 3 from each side

-2x+3-3 < 5-3

-2x < 2

Divide each side by -2

Remember that flips the inequality

-2x/-2 > 2/-2

x>-1
