Question

-8x + 40 > -16 pls step by step

Answer 1

Answer:

x <7

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 40 from both sides.

-8x>-16-40

2 Simplify -16-40 to -56.

-8x>-56

3 Divide both sides by -8−8.

$x < \frac{56}{8}$

4 Two negatives make a positive.

$x < \frac{56}{8}$

5 Simplify 56/8 to 7

x<7
