Question

The solution set of this inequality?

−2x+7<23

Answer 1

x > - 8

Explanation:

Given

- 2x + 7 < 23 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

- 2x < 16 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

Remembering to reverse the inequality symbol when dividing/ multipkying by a negative quantity, hence

x > - 8 ← reversed symbol

Answer 2

I think the answer is x > -8.
