-2x + 5 < 7
-2x + 5 < 7
<u> -5 -5 </u> deduct 5 from both sides
-2x < 2
<u>÷ -2 ÷ -2 </u> divide both sides by negative 2. Because of the division
x > -1 using a negative number, the sign is then reversed.
from < it becomes >.
The value of x should be greater than -1. It can be 0, 1, 2, so on...
To check: Revert back to the original sign which is <.
x = 1
-2x + 5 < 7
-2(1) + 5 < 7
-2 + 5 < 7
3 < 7
