Question

solve for $x$ and graph the solution on the number line below.
$-10 > x - 2 > -12$
answer attempt 1 out of 2
inequality notation:
number line:
-12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12

Explanation:

Step1: Add 2 to all parts

Add 2 to each part of the compound - inequality $-10>x - 2>-12$.
$-10 + 2>x-2 + 2>-12 + 2$

Step2: Simplify the expressions

Simplify the left - hand side, middle, and right - hand side expressions.
$-8>x>-10$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $-10Number Line: Mark an open circle at $-10$ and an open circle at $-8$, and shade the region between them.
