Question

I didn't get this one question right on a test. Could someone tell me what I did wrong? Plz and ty

Answer 1

8 - 5x <-2

8 (-8) - 5x < -2 (-8)

-5x < -10

-5x/-5 < -10/-5

x > 2            (flip the sign because you divided by a negative number

x = 3, 4, 5

your answer is 3, 4, 5

note that it isn't 2, because it isn't a ≥, which means that it cannot be 2

hope this helps
