Question

ALSO WORTH 50 POINTS Which graph matches the inequality: 2(4x - 5) < 14x + 8?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is: C

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4x - 5) < 14x + 8

First multiply 2 by 4x and -5

8x - 10 < 14x + 8

Now find out what x is

Move 14x to the left

8x - 14x - 10 = 8

Then move 10 to the right and change it's sign to plus

8x - 14x = 8 + 10

Now combine like terms

-6x = 18

Now divide 18 by 6 to get x

x = 18/-6

x = -3
