Question

Determine whether x=2 is a solution to the inequality -2x< -4

Answer 1

Explanation:

-2x<-4

x=2

-2×2<-4

-4<-4

which is not true.

Hence x=2 is not a solution.

Answer 2

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: To determine whether x = 2 is a

solution to the inequality, substitute a 2 in for x.

So we have -2(2) < -4 or -4 < -4 which is a false statement.

No, 2 is not a solution to the inequality.
