Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided.
$2x - 57 < -73$
answer attempt 1 out of 2
$< > \leq \geq$ or
inequality notation:
number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Add 57 to both sides

$2x - 57 + 57 < -73 + 57$
$2x < -16$

Step2: Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{2x}{2} < \frac{-16}{2}$
$x < -8$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: $x < -8$

For the number line: Draw an open circle at $-8$, then draw an arrow pointing to the left (towards negative infinity) to represent all values less than $-8$.
