Math queztion -8x + 40> -16 =

x < 7

Step-by-step explanation: Just like any of your two-step equations, in this inequality, start by isolating the x term which in this case is -8x by subtracting 40 from both sides.

That leaves you with -8x > -56.

To get x by itself, divide both sides by -8 but watch out.

If you divide both sides of an inequality by a negative,

you must switch the direction of the inequality sign.

So we have x < 7.

8 2/3 is the answer

step-by-step explanation: just use a calculator

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

4x - 6 + 6 = 4x - 6 + 6

4x = 4x

x = x
