Question

Please help me with the question below(also please answer the question in a maximum of 2-4 minutes).

Answer 1

Given: The inequality below

$-7x+3<-53$

To Determine: the solution of the given inequality

Solution

Collect like terms

$\begin{gathered} -7x+3<-53 \\ -7x<-53-3 \\ -7x<-56 \end{gathered}$

Divide both sides by -7

Please note for any time you divide two sides of an inequality by a negative sign, the inequality sign is reversed

So

$\begin{gathered} \frac{-7x}{-7}<\frac{-56}{-7} \\ x>8 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the solution of the given inequality is x > 8, OPTION C
