Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. 5 + 7x < -51 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 5 from both sides

$5 + 7x-5<-51 - 5$
$7x<-56$

Step2: Divide both sides by 7

$\frac{7x}{7}<\frac{-56}{7}$
$x < - 8$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x < - 8$
Number Line: An open - circle at - 8 and an arrow pointing to the left.
