Question

A. xs-8
B. x<8
C. x 2-8
D. x 8

Answer 1

 -8 < x

Explanation:

To solve -9.4 > 1.7x + 4.2, we can use the following steps:

Subtract 4.2 from both sides of the inequality to isolate 1.7x on the right side.

-9.4 - 4.2 > 1.7x + 4.2 - 4.2

-13.6 > 1.7x

Divide both sides by 1.7 to solve for x. Remember to flip the inequality sign when dividing by a positive number.
