Question

here is an inequality: 2x+5>50. explain the steps you would use to solve the inequality for x. what would the graph look like

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: 2 plus 5

7 <50

Answer 2

x = 22.5

Explanation:

2x + 5 > 50.

We do inverse operations sooo:

2x + 5 - 5 > 50 - 5.

50 - 5 = 45.

Then we do 2x ÷ 2 and 45 ÷ 2.

45 ÷ 2 = 22.5.

To check our answer to see if its right we do 22.5 x 2 which equals 45. Then we do 45 + 5 which equals 50. So the sign is wrong it should be greater than or equal to.
