Question

what is the solution set for -4x - 10 <2
a. x < -3
b. x > -3
c. x < 2
d. x > 2

Answer 1

Answer:

x > -3

Step-by-step explanation:

because it is a linear inequality

-4x - 10 < 2 (collecting like terms)

-4x < 2 + 10 (then adding)

-4x/-4< 12/-4 (divide both by -4)

x > -3 (because of it is negative sign less than changes to positive)
