Question

Which number lint represents the solution set for the inequity -1/2x>4

Answer 1

B. x < -8

Explanation:

Well first we need to get x by itself.

To do that we do 4 / -1/2 = -8

And since a negative was divided the > changes to a <.

So x<-8.

If x is less than -8 the line starts at -8 and goes to the left.

Thus,

the answer is choice b.

Hope this helps :)
