Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. -8 - 4x > -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 click and drag to plot line. submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Add 8 to both sides

$-8 - 4x+8>-16 + 8$
$-4x>-8$

Step2: Divide both sides by - 4 and reverse the inequality sign

Since dividing by a negative number in an inequality flips the sign, $\frac{-4x}{-4}<\frac{-8}{-4}$
$x < 2$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x < 2$
Number - Line: On the number line, draw an open circle at 2 (because 2 is not included in the solution) and draw an arrow to the left of 2.
