Question

Solve the inequality 2x + 7 - 3x < 13 +2X. You must show your work and describe the graph of the solution on the number line.

Answer 1

Cancel equal terms on both sides of inequality

7-3x < 13

move constant to the right side and change its sign

-3x<13-7

subtract the numbers

-3x<6

divide both sides of inequality by -3 and flip the inequality sign

answer is: x>-2
