Question

Solve the inequality: x - 12 < -16

Answer 1

X< -4
You need to do inverse operations and add 12 to both sides.

Answer 2

Answer:

x > -4

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is in order to get the x by itself you need to do the opposite of -12 which is just +12 so you need to add 12 to both sides. You should end up with something like this:

x -12 + 12 < -16 + 12

x < -4

So, that should be your answer. Hope this helps :) Have a good day!!
