{–0.8, 1, 1.5}

Answer 6

think of the inequality like a greedy alligator who always bites the biggest one. In that case the inequality is saying that X is less than 2 so you need to find a number that is less than 2.
5 is not less than 2 so that's not it.
2.6 is not less than 2 so that's not it
2 is not less than so that's not it.
0.8 is less than 2
1 is less than 2
1.5 is less than 2
so the solution set is {0.8,1,1.5}
