Question

d graph the solution on the number line below.

$-10x > 80$

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable x

Divide both sides by - 10. When dividing an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign flips. So we have $x<\frac{80}{-10}$.

Step2: Calculate the value

$\frac{80}{-10}=-8$, so $x < - 8$.

Answer:

The solution of the inequality is $x < - 8$. On the number - line, we draw an open circle at - 8 (because x is less than but not equal to - 8) and shade the line to the left of - 8.
