-2x - 8 > -12
-2x - 8 + 2x > -12 + 2x ...... add 2x to both sides
-8 > -12 + 2x
-8+12 > -12+2x+12 .... add 12 to both sides
4 > 2x
2x < 4 ..... flip both sides so that the x term is on the left side
2x/2 < 4/2 .... divide both sides by 2
x < 2
This describes the set of x values such that x is less than 2.
The largest integer that x can be is x = 1. The value of x cannot be 2 because we don't have an "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign.
Final Answer: 1
D. 17 inches
To be a triangle, any two sides have to add to be larger than the remaining side. An isosceles triangle has two sides that are the exact same length, which eliminates options B and C. 8 + 8 = 16, which is less than 17, so option A is out, leaving only option D.
