Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. -2x + 40 < 38 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 40 from both sides

$-2x+40 - 40<38 - 40$
$-2x<-2$

Step2: Divide both sides by - 2 and reverse the inequality sign

$\frac{-2x}{-2}>\frac{-2}{-2}$
$x > 1$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x>1$
Number Line: Plot an open - circle at 1 and draw a line to the right.
