Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x < -2
Discussion:
7 < 3 - 2x => Add 2x to both sides
7 + 2x < 3 - (2x - 2x) => As 2x -2x = 0
7 + 2x < 3 => Subtract 7 from both sides
(7-7) + 2x < 3 - 7 => As 7-7 = 0 and 3-7 = -4
2x < -4 => Divide both sides by 2
x < -4./2 = -2
Thank you,

Answer:
16.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is defined by the formula: the number of desirable outcomes over the total outcomes. The total number of outcomes is the sum of all shoes that he could possibly pick:
5 + 7 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 2 + 3 = 36
And the desirable outcomes are those where he picks brown boots, which is 6 outcomes.
Using the formula for probability, we get the expression: 6/36 to represent the probability. It simplifies to 1/6 which is about 16.7%
10 - 2x = -5x -5
+2x +2x
10 = -3x -5
+5 +5
15= -3x
X= -5
