Responses
x < 1012
x < 10 and 1 half
x < 612
x < 6 and 1 half
x < 512
x < 5 and 1 half
x < 412
None of the answer choices provided is correct.
To solve the inequality x + 212 < 8, we need to isolate x.
Subtracting 212 from both sides gives us x < 8 - 212, which simplifies to x < -204.
Solve x + 2 1/2 < 8
x < 10 1/2
x < 6 1/2
x < 5 1/2
x < 4 1/2
The correct answer is x < 5 1/2.
explain
To solve the inequality x + 2 1/2 < 8, we need to isolate x.
First, subtract 2 1/2 from both sides of the inequality:
x + 2 1/2 - 2 1/2 < 8 - 2 1/2
This simplifies to:
x < 5 1/2
This means that any value of x that is less than 5 1/2 will satisfy the inequality. Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x < 5 1/2.
To solve the inequality x + 212 < 8, we need to isolate the variable x.
First, subtract 212 from both sides of the inequality:
x + 212 - 212 < 8 - 212
This simplifies to:
x < -204
Therefore, the correct answer is x < -204.
