7   lol

Are there other choices?

asnaseer · Answer

$$\begin{align}
2(x-2)&<2\
x-2&<1\
x&<3
\end{align}$$you need to see if the choices you are offered lead to the same solution. if not, then that choice does not belong.

"A number line with a closed circle on 3 and shading to the right.

 A number line with a closed circle on 3 and shading to the left.

 3 less than or equal to  x

 x  greater or equal to3"

which one do you think is the answer?

asnaseer · Answer

which ones do NOT match the solution?

anonymous · Answer

anything that is equivalent to the algebraic statement 2x-4<2 is a fine way to represent what you have presented. as (2x-2)<4 is only 'true' when x is 1 or 2. only 1 and 2 can substitue for x. Here is a website to refer you to a cartesian coordinate representation of the inequality and a number line representation. For the algebraic simply solve and reduce. http://www.mathsrevision.net/gcse/pages.php?page=27

@ixforrest - you have only given the positive integer solutions.

anonymous · Answer

well since the assignment is to represent what are NOT the solutions or theyre just being an retriceole I dont really think it matters if I only respond with a representation of the positive integers its plug and chug and I'm not doing homework! Anyway reread sentence 1. ANYTHING ..... 1 and 2 are the only 'true' quote un quote. I think that's pretty, I'm helping you but Im not giving you the keys fair.

I really don't understand what you are trying to say here?
