Q. −23x+5<7What values of x satisfy the inequality?Choose 1 answer:(A) x<−8(B) x>−3(C) x>−34(D) x>8
Isolate the term: Isolate the term containing x on one side of the inequality.Subtract 5 from both sides of the inequality -\frac{3}{2}x + 5 < 7.-\frac{3}{2}x + 5 - 5 < 7 - 5-\frac{3}{2}x < 2
Solve for x: Solve for x by dividing both sides of the inequality by −(3)/(2).Remember that dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.x > 2 / (-(3)/(2))x > 2 \cdot (-2/3)x > -4/3
Compare the solution: Compare the solution to the answer choices.The solution x > -\frac{4}{3} matches with choice (C) x > -\left(\frac{4}{3}\right).
