Question

Hi, I'm confused why the answer to this question is y<7. Why wouldn't it be y<5? Here's the question:

If y = 2x + 3 and x < 2, which of the following represents all the possible values for y?

Answer 1

because... if y=2x+3 and x<2 now we have:
let's take x=1 so 1<2

y=2*1+3
y=2+3
y=5

or x=0 so 0<2
now you have:
y=2*0+3
y=3

each of them are true for y<7
because in the first one you have
y=5
so 5<7 --True
and the second one:
y=3
so 3<7
... hope this helps

Answer 2

Okay, thanks!
