Question

Solve the inequality for x and identify the graph of its solution.

[1x + 1]< 2
Choose the answer that gives both the correct solution and the correct graph.

Answer 1

x<1

Explanation:

[1x + 1]< 2

Simplify both sides of the inequality.

x+1<2

Subtract 1 from both sides.

x+1−1<2−1

x<1

Answer:

x<1
