Answer:

Answer is x > -1

Explanation:

Because -2x + 3 < 5

-3 -3 minus 3 on both sides

Then: -2x < 5

-2 -2 divide negative 2 on both sides

And get x > -1, Because if you divide by negative numbers the sign always flips.

Sorry i had to reedit it's -1 because you divide my bad.

Hope my answer has helped you and if not i'm sorry.
