Question

solve for x and graph the solution on the number line below. 7 + x < 16 answer attempt 1 out of 2 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line: -12 -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12

Explanation:

Step1: Isolate the variable x

Subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality $7 + x<16$.
$7 + x-7<16 - 7$

Step2: Simplify the inequality

$x<9$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x < 9$
Number Line: Draw an open - circle at 9 (since the inequality is strict, $x
eq9$) and shade the line to the left of 9.
