1) 7 < 3 – 2x 2) 8(x-1) - 1 < 6x - 1

3) 9x + 1 > 2x - 1
4

4) 8y - 3y + 1 < 29

5) 3x + 1 > 2x + 7

6) -7y - 4 < 6 + 2y

7) x - 1 < x + 3
xx3 2

8) 2x - 1 > 4 - 1/2x

9) 8x < 5(2x+4)

10) -3y - 6 < 3(7+2y)

11) 4 - 5(y - 2) < -2(-9 + 2y)

12) 12 (1/4 + x/3) > 15

13) -3 (4x - 8 ) > 2( 3 + 2x)

14) 5x < 10 + 2(3x - 4)

15) -8h + 5 > -23

1) -2 > X

Step-by-step explanation:

7 < 3 - 2x

collecting like terms

7 - 3 < -2x

4 < -2x

4/-2 < -2x/-2

changing direction to greater than because of the negative sign

-2 > x

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
