Choose the missing step in the given solution to the inequality -X – 10 > 14 + 2x.
-X - 10 > 14 + 2x
-3x - 10 > 14
X<-8

Answer 1

see below

Explanation:

-X – 10 > 14 + 2x.

Subtract 2x from each side

-x-2x -10 > 14+2x-2x

-3x -10 > 14

Add 10 to each side

-3x -10+10 > 14+10

-3x > 24

Divide each side by -3, remembering to flip the inequality

-3x/-3 < 24/-3

x < -8
