Question

Which graph shows the solution to the following -3x+5>17

Answer 1

`- 3x + 5 > 17`

subtract 5 to both sides

`- 3x > 12`

divide -3 to bothel sides (and you have to flip the sign when you multiply or divide a negative number to both sides)

`x < - 4`

so the answer should be less than -4

the only answer that is less than -4 is

`- 5`

Answer 2

the answer is -5

`- 3x + 5 > 17 \\ - 3x > 12 \\ x < -4 \\ x \: can \: b e \: - 5`

good luck
