Answer:

x = 2

x < 2

x < 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5 = 9

Since there is an addition sign in front of 5, you must do the opposite: subtraction. Subtract 5 from 9.

9 - 5 = 4.

Lastly, divide the difference by the number in front of x (2).

2x = 4

4 ÷ 2 = 2

x = 2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2x + 5 < 9

Again, subtract 5 from 9.

9 - 5 = 4

Lastly, divide the difference by the number in front of the x (2).

2x = 4

4 ÷ 2 = 2

x < 2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4x - 5 < 7

Since there is a subtraction sign in front of the 5, you must do the opposite: addition. Add 5 to 7.

5 + 7 = 12

Lastly, divide the sum by the number in front of the x (4).

4x = 12.

12 ÷ 4 = 3

x < 3
