A. x is less than 1
B. x is greater than 1
C. x is less than -1
D. x is greater than -1

Answer 1

*** 7- 3 is greater than -x + 5

Answer 2

Okay, which one?

7-3 > -x+5

7-3x > -x+5

Answer 3

Craaaap. I got that wrong too. It's the second one.

Answer 4

:-)

Okay, so it's
7-3x > -x+5

First thing you want to do is set it up as an equation:
7-3x = -x+5

Then you want to get all the x terms on one side and the numbers on the other.
Start by adding x to both sides:

7-3x+x = -x+x+5 = what?
