Question

solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below. 7 + x < 16 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable x

Subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality $7 + x<16$.
$7 + x-7<16 - 7$

Step2: Simplify the inequality

$x<9$

Answer:

<, 9
On the number - line, you would draw an open circle at 9 (because x is less than 9, not less than or equal to 9) and shade the line to the left of 9 to represent all the values of x that satisfy the inequality.
