Question

Is this a solution or an inequality? 5 - x < 8; x = -3

Answer 1

Answer:

no, x=-3 is not a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in -3 as x.

5-(-3)<8

Distribute the -1 to the -3.

5+3<8

Add the 5 and 3.

8<8

8 is not less than 8, so -3 is not a solution to the inequality.

HTH :)
