Answer:
A
Explanation:
To solve for x, we need to get x by itself
−2x + 5 < 7
First, move all the numbers to the same side of the inequality. To do this, subtract 5 from both sides.
-2x +5-5 < 7-5
-2x < 2
Now, all the numbers are on the same side. x is still not by itself, though, it is being multiplied by -2. To undo this, divide both sides by -2
-2x/2 < 2/-2
Since we divided by a negative number, we must flip the inequality sign
x > -1
Therefore, choice A is correct
