Question

Need help on INEQUALITY

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is A. x = 1 or D. x = 7.

Step-by-step explanation

For this problem, we can substitute each of the values and see which ones make the inequality true.

Using x = 1

3 - 5(1) > 2

3 - 5 > 2

-2 > 2

This is not true, so this is not our solution. However, I will show the rest of the solutions anyways.

Using x = 0

3 - 5(0) > 2

3 - 0 > 2

3 > 2

This is true, so x = 0 is a solution to the inequality.

Using x = -1

3 - 5(-1) > 2

3 + 5 > 2

8 > 2

This is true, so x = -1 is a solution to the inequality.

Using x = 7

3 - 5(7) > 2

3 - 35 > 2

-32 > 2

This is not true, so x = 7 is not a solution to the inequality.

Answer 2

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 5x > 2

= -5x > 2-3

= -5x > -1

= x < 1/5
