solve 5 and 7

solve 5 and 7

Solution

Here are the solutions to inequalities 5 and 7:


Problem 5:

Solve for xx: x+5>13x + 5 > -13
To isolate xx, subtract 55 from both sides:

x>135x > -13 - 5
x>18x > -18

Solution: x>18x > -18


Problem 7:

Solve for ss: s+3.7<1s + 3.7 < 1
To isolate ss, subtract 3.73.7 from both sides:

s<13.7s < 1 - 3.7
s<2.7s < -2.7

Solution: s<2.7s < -2.7


Final Solutions:

  1. For Problem 5: x>18x > -18
  2. For Problem 7: s<2.7s < -2.7
