Identify the solution set of the given inequality using the given replacement set. x < –5; {–9, –6.5, –5.2, –5, 0, 4.2} A. {–9, –6.5, –5.2, –5} B. {–5, 0, 4.2} C. {0, 4.2} D. {–9, –6.5, –5.2} I dont want the answer

OpenStudy (freckles):

let's take each element from the {-9,-6.5,-5.2,-5,0,4.2} and see which of those x values work for x<-5 --- though you could just identity what elements from the set given are less than -5

OpenStudy (freckles):

is -9<-5? is -6.5<-5? is -5.2<-5? is -5<-5? is 0<-5? is 4.2<-5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it d?

OpenStudy (freckles):

d is right

OpenStudy (freckles):

because -5<-5 isn't true and 0<-5 isn't true and 4.2<-5 isn't true
