Question

4) Given that x is an integar

find the three greatest value
of x which satisfies the lines
inequality 7x < 2x - 13
​

Answer 1

The three greatest are -3, -4, -5

Explanation:

7x < 2x - 13

Subtract 2x from each side

7x-2x < 2x-2x - 13

5x < -13

Divide by 5

5x/5 < - 13/5

x < - 2 3/5

Since x is an integer

-3 is the largest integer that fits the inequality

The three greatest are -3, -4, -5
