Question

-5 solve inequality. put the solution in set notation

Answer 1

$\tt \to \: - 5 < a + 2$

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

$\tt \to - 5 - a < 2$

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

$\tt \to \: - a < 2 + 5$

Add the numbers

$\tt \to \: - a < 7$

Change the signs on both sides of the inequality and flip the inequality sign

$\tt \to \: a > - 7$
