Answer:

2< x -

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the steps for solving the given inequality for x.

7x+16<-5(4-5x)

Select the reason for each step from the drop down menus.

7x+16<-5(4-5) - Given

7x+16<-20+25x - Distributive Property

16<-20+18x - ?

36< 18x - ?

2< x - ?

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve  the inequality for x.

Solution is given below.

7x +16 < -5(4 - 5x)....given

7x + 16 < -20 + 25x....distributive property

16 < -20 + 18x ... subtraction property

16 + 20 < 18x.....addition property

36 < 18x

36/18 < x.....division property

2 < x
