Question

Is 3 a solution to the inequality x < 3

Answer 1

No.

Explanation:

Replace x with 3 in the inequality and see if it makes a true or false statement.

x < 3

3 < 3

3 in not less than 3. 3 is equal to 3, so the statement 3 < 3 is false, so 3 is not a solution.

Answer 2

no, if it was the inequality would be x ≤ 3 not x < 3
