Question

Solve for xx and graph the solution on the number line below. minus, 1, is less than, start fraction, x, divided by, 2, end fraction −1< 2 x ​

Answer 1

The solution for x is : x > 1

Using the expression given;

• -1 < x/2

To evaluate, multiply both sides by 2 to isolate x

-1*2 < x/2 * 2

-1 < x

changing the sides

-x < 1

divide both sides by -1 to isolate x

x > 1

Hence , the solution for x is x > 1
