Question

Solve for x: 3 − (2x − 5) < −4(x + 2) (1 point)

x < −8
x > −3
x > −8
x < −3

Answer 1

dont you have to get all of the x-s on one side?

Answer 2

3*5< -2x+-8
15<-2x-8
+8 +8
23<-2x
11.5>x...... uugh

Answer 3

3 is not being multiplied by anything

Answer 4

oops its + isnt it

Answer 5

\[3 − (2x − 5)=3-2x+5=-2x+8\]

Answer 6

start with \[-2x+8<-4x-8\]

Answer 7

8<-2x+-8?

Answer 8

add \(4x\) to both sides to get \[2x+8<-8\]

Answer 9

and then - 8?

Answer 10

subtract 8 get \[2x<-16\]

Answer 11

then divide by 2 and you are done

Answer 12

so x> -8

Answer 13

oooh thank you!!
