What is the solution of 5a + 12 < 2 and 5a - 12 < 3? A. a < 3 B. a < 2 C. a < -2 D. a > -2

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

@ganeshie8 I'm almost sure it's C. a < -2 because I solved for both of them and one is less than -2 and one is less than 3. Can you verify if this is correct?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes a<-2 is more restrictive than a<3, so C is right ! good job !!
