Solve for x: −2x + 5 < 7

Mathematics
1 answer:
hoa [83]3 years ago
7 0
-2x + 5 < 7

-2x + 5 < 7
<u>        -5     -5   </u>       deduct 5 from both sides
-2x       < 2
<u>÷ -2        ÷ -2  </u>       divide both sides by negative 2. Because of the division 
 x          > -1          using a negative number, the sign is then reversed.
                             from < it becomes >.

The value of x should be greater than -1. It can be 0, 1, 2, so on... 

To check: Revert back to the original sign which is <.

x = 1
-
2x + 5 < 7
-2(1) + 5 < 7
-2 + 5 < 7
3 < 7

Help please..! I need the answer to this thank you.
torisob [31]

1. The additive identity is 0. This is because adding 0 to anything leads to the same value. Example: 0+3 = 3.

2. An equation is where you have two expressions separated by an equal sign. In your case it would be "a mathematical sentence whose verb is 'equal' (=)"

3. The multiplicative identity is 1. Multiply 1 with any number and the result is that same number. Example: 1*7 = 7.

4. An open sentence is an equation that contains one or more variables. An example would be x+2 = 4. The reason why we call it open is because the true or false nature of the sentence is up in the air until we know what x is. If we knew that x = 3 for instance, then x+2 = 4 would be false since 3+2 = 4 is false. If we nailed down what x was then it would go from open to closed.

5. The symmetric property is that if a = b then b = a. Think of a mirror how the image reverses.
