Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. 7 + 8x > -9 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 click and drag to plot line submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the term with x

Subtract 7 from both sides.
$7 + 8x-7>-9 - 7$
$8x>-16$

Step2: Solve for x

Divide both sides by 8.
$\frac{8x}{8}>\frac{-16}{8}$
$x > - 2$

Answer:

$x > - 2$
On the number - line, there is an open circle at - 2 and the line extends to the right.
