Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. -5x + 8 > 3 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: Subtract 8 from both sides

$-5x+8 - 8>3 - 8$
$-5x>-5$

Step2: Divide both sides by - 5 and reverse the inequality sign

Since dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality, $\frac{-5x}{-5}<\frac{-5}{-5}$
$x < 1$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x < 1$
Number Line: Draw an open - circle at 1 and a line extending to the left.
