Answer 1

@Omar_Elboredy can u help me with this one also its the last one i promise

Answer 2

w-5<-8/2
Right?

Answer 3

i hope so

Answer 4

w-5<-4

Answer 5

Then add both sides by 5.

Then you would have your answer.

Answer 6

First , U have to get the "w" in one side an all other stuff on the other side , to do this simply you have to divide both sides by 2 like this :
\[\frac{ 2(w - 5) }{ 2 } < \frac{ -8}{ 2 }\]

nw you get : \[(w-5) < -4\]
nw get the 5 from left side to the right one
nw you get : \[w < 1\]
Which is what ! "C"
Simple, isn't it ! :D

Answer 7

thx

Answer 8

Welcomes ! :)

Answer 9

You can also distribute the 2 first and then add 10 and divide 2 on both sides.

2(w − 5) < −8

2w-10 < -8

2w - 10 + 10 <-8+10
2w < 2
w < 1
