5x-10<6x-8

I have this due tomorrow please help

-2 < x  

Step-by-step explanation:

Question :  5x - 10 <  6x - 8

Answer :

Let us solve now.

Method 1 ⇒ 5x - 10 < 6x - 8

                  -10 + 8 + 5x < 6x

                  -10 + 8 < 6x - 5x

                   =  -2 < x

Method 2 ⇒ 5x - 10 < 6x - 8

                     5x - 6x < 10 - 8

                     -x  < 2

                  =   x > -2  

Both methods are correct.

* You have to remember that, Whenever you are dividing to multiplying both sides of an inequality , if there is a (-) sign in front of x , you have to change the direction of the inequality sign.

Hope this helps :-)

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+8(x+

1

4

)=3(6x−9)−8

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

1

4

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3
