Question

Which represents the solution set of 5(x+5) <85?

Ox< 12
O x> 12
O x < 18
O x> 18

Answer 1

Answer: O x<12

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

5x+25<85

Step 2: Subtract 25 from both sides.

5x+25−25<85−25

5x<60

Step 3: Divide both sides by 5.

5x/5 < 60/5

x<12
