Answer:
x > -8
Step-by-step explanation:
-2x + 7 < 23
Subtract 7 from each side
-2x + 7-7 < 23-7
-2x < 16
Divide by -2, remembering to flip the inequality
-2x/-2 > 16/-2
x >-8
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] = - 2x + 7 < 23[/tex].
Move the constant to the right side..
[tex] = - 2x < 23 - 7[/tex]
Subtract 7 from 23
[tex] = - 2x < 16[/tex]
Change the symbol and reverse the symbol of the inequality to other direction...
[tex] = 2x > - 16[/tex]
Now....divide both side by the same number
[tex] = x > - 8[/tex]
