Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following represents the solution to the inequality x/3 + 2 < 5?
Correct Answer: x < 9
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality x/3 + 2 < 5.
  • Step 2: To isolate x/3, subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality. This gives you x/3 < 5 - 2.
  • Step 3: Simplify the right side. 5 - 2 equals 3, so now you have x/3 < 3.
  • Step 4: To get x by itself, multiply both sides of the inequality by 3. This gives you x < 3 * 3.
  • Step 5: Simplify the right side. 3 * 3 equals 9, so now you have x < 9.
