Solve -2a-5&gt;3. which graph shows the solutions?<br>​
Flura [38]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 2a - 5 > 3 ( add 5 to both sides )

- 2a > 8

Divide both sides by - 2, reversing the direction of the inequality sign as a consequence of dividing by a negative quantity

a < - 4

Since a is less than we require an open circle at - 4 on the number line.

Since less than the arrow head is pointing to the left, that is

Graph A, the top graph illustrates the solution

2x+3=-7<br><br> What is the answer?
Mashcka [7]

Hi there! With equations like this we want to get our variable on one side and and our constant on the other.

So with 2x + 3 = -7 you'd subtract the constant 3 from both sides of the equal sign to get 2x = -10, then you'd divide both sides by 2 to get x = -5. If you double check your work by replacing x in the original equation with our answer we'd find that 2(-5) + 3 = -7 is correct.

Hope you find this helpful :)
