Question

Which values of x are solutions to the inequality?

x < -200. select each correct answer
A. x = - 120
B. x = - 210
C. x = -200
D. x = -201​

Answer 1

B.
`x=-210`

D.
`x=-201`

Explanation:

Given:

The inequality for 'x' is given as:

`x<-200`

The above inequality tells us that, the value of the variable 'x' is less than -200.

-200 is a negative number. So, for a negative number, the larger the value of the number, the smaller the number is.

Example: -2 is less than -1 although 2 has a greater magnitude than 1.

Therefore, the numbers that are less than -200 are -210 and -201.

So, the values of 'x' that satisfy the given inequality are -201 and -210

Thus, the correct options are (B) and (D).
