Answer:

a < 5

Explanation:

7a + 13 < 48

Subtract 13 from each side

7a + 13-13 < 48-13

7a < 35

Divide each side by 7

7a/7 < 35/7

a < 5

Hi there! :)

Answer:


\huge\boxed{a < 5}

Given:

7a + 13 < 48

Isolate the variable "a" by subtracting 13 from both sides:

7a - 13 < 48 - 13

7a < 35

Divide both sides by 7:

7a/7 < 35/7

a < 5.
