Question

I need help please. Solve:2.6 + x < 8.3

Answer 1

We need to solve:

`2.6+x<8.3`

The first step is to subtract "2.6" on both sides:

`\begin{gathered} 2.6+x-2.6<8.3-2.6 \\ x+2.6-2.6<5.7 \\ x<5.7 \end{gathered}`

On the number line, we have:

Notice that the the dot must be on "5.7" and it must be an opened dot.
