In Order For George To Make It To School By 8:50 He Must Leave At 8:15
We must first Isolate the Variable by removing factors that don't contain the variable:
2(x + 7) < 12
2x + 14 < 12
2x + 14 - 14 < 12 - 14
2x < -2
2x / 2 < -2/2
x < -1
Hope this helps!
Let x be the number in the problem. When it states that x is "no more than -10", it means than it is less than or equal to -10. So, we have

x≤-10
In order to cancel out the

on the left and isolate x, we multiply both sides by

(since

·

=1). Thus, we have
x≤-10·

=-15
Therefore, x≤-15
