Question

-13>-5x+2>-28 step by step please

Answer 1

you can think of that as 2 inequalities

-13 > -5x + 2
and
-5x+2 > -28

and solve each for the x

Answer 2

or, keep it like it is, and do the same things to all 3 parts, for instance subtract 2 from each one, the point is to get x by itself

-13 - 2 > -5x + 2 - 2 > -28 - 2

-15 > -5x > -30

Answer 3

if you subtract 2 from each one wouldnt you get -11>5x and _5x>-26 ? @DanJS

Answer 4

@lina17 so with this ,,subtract 2" @DanJS wan saying to you adding to both sides (minus 2)
so than will get -13+(-2)=-15 and not -11 how you have wrote above and on the other side the same too so -28 +(-2) = -30 and not -26
- do you understand it now ?

hope so much that these wrote above will be very helpfully to you ,to understanding right this way to solve same inequality

ok. ?
