Question

solve the inequality and graph the -17 < 2t - 9 plot the endpoints. select an endpo middle of the segment, ray, or line to de

Explanation:

Step1: Add 9 to both sides

$-17 + 9<2t-9 + 9$
$-8<2t$

Step2: Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{-8}{2}<\frac{2t}{2}$
$-4 < t$

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is $t>-4$. On the number - line, we use an open - circle at $t = - 4$ (because the inequality is strict, $t
eq - 4$) and draw a ray to the right of $-4$.
