Which of the following best describes the solutions to the inequality shown above?Choose 1 answer:(A) x<-\frac{9}{2} (B) x>-\frac{9}{2} (C) x<-\frac{2}{9} (D) x>-\frac{2}{9}
Q. −9>2xWhich of the following best describes the solutions to the inequality shown above?Choose 1 answer:(A) x<−29(B) x>−29(C) x<−92(D) x>−92
Isolate variable by dividing: Isolate the variable x by dividing both sides of the inequality by 2.-9 > 2xDivide both sides by 2:-\frac{9}{2} > \frac{2x}{2}-4.5 > x
Rewrite inequality with x on left: Rewrite the inequality in a more conventional form, where x is on the left.x < -4.5This is equivalent to saying x is less than −4.5.
Match solution to multiple-choice answers: Match the solution to the given multiple-choice answers.The inequality x < -4.5 is equivalent to x < -\left(\frac{9}{2}\right), since −4.5 is the same as −29 when expressed as a fraction.
