Question

$-2 > -5 + x$

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable x

Add 5 to both sides of the inequality.
$-2 + 5> - 5+x + 5$

Step2: Simplify both sides

$3>x$, which can also be written as $x < 3$.

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is $x < 3$. On a number - line, you would draw an open circle at 3 (since 3 is not included in the solution) and shade the line to the left of 3.
