Question

Solve the inequality 5> 2x-7=

Answer 1

x<6

Explanation:

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side. This changes the sign direction.

`2x < 5+7`

Add 7 to both sides.

`2x < 5+7`

Add 5 and 7 to get 12.

`2x < 12`

Divide both sides by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

`x < (12)/(2)`

Divide 12 by 2 to get 6.

`x < 6`
