Question

(07.01 MC)Of the following sets, which numbers in {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} make the inequality 7x + 3 < 17 true? {0} {0, 1} {0, 1, 2} {2, 3, 4}

Answer 1

I took the quiz and the answer is B

Explanation:

Answer 2

{0, 1}

Explanation:

Solving for 'x' in the inequality:

`7x+3<17\\7x+3-3<17-3 \leftarrow \text{Subtraction Property of Equality}\\7x<14\\7x/7<14/7 \leftarrow \text{Division Property of Equality}\\\boxed{x<2}`

X's value has to be less than two to make the inequality true. So, {0, 1} should be the correct answer.
