Question

Solve the given inequality and graph the solution on a number line. -x/2 + 3/2 < 5/2

Answer 1

Answer:

x > −2

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to isolate the variable. You can do this by first subtracting 3/2 from both sides of the inequality sign.

You will get -x/2 < 2/2.

Next, since x is being divided by -2, you will multiply it by -2 to undo it. Do this to both sides.

Note that when multiplying or dividing by a negative you will flip the inequality sign. '<' becomes '>' and '>' becomes '<'.

You will get x > -2.
