Answer:


\sf{b. (x)/(2) <3}

step by step explanation:

We will try one by one.

A. x + 5 < 3

Step 1. Subtitution Value of x

= 4 + 5 < 3

Step 2. Add by 4 with 5

= 9 < 5

A is wrong because 9 is bigger then 5

B. x/2 < 3

= 4/2 < 3

= 2 < 3

is true because 2 is smaller than 3

C. 9x > 36

9(4) > 36

36 > 36

is wrong, should 36 = 36

D. 18 < 8

is wrong because 18 is bigger than 8
