Answer 1

-3<x<5

Explanation:

Given the inequality 2x-3<7 and 5-x<8

Solve 2x-3<7

Add 3 to both sides

2x-3+3 < 7+3

2x < 10

2x/2 < 10/2

x < 5

Solve 5-x<8

subtract 5 from both sides:

5-x-5<8-5

-x < 3

multiply both sides by -1

-(-x) > -3

x > -3

-3<x

Combine both solutions x < 5 and -3<x

-3<x<5

The solution to the compound inequality is -3<x<5
