Answer 1

Answer: B. (all numbers less than or equal to -3 will satisfy the inequality)

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to solve the inequality for x:

7 - 5x > 3x + 31

7-31 > 3x +5x

-24 > 8x

-24/8 > x

-3 > x

x < -3

So, the correct option is:

B. (all numbers less than or equal to -3 will satisfy the inequality)
