Question

solve for ( x ) and graph the solution on the number line below.
( 7 + x lt 6 )
answer attempt 1 out of 2
( lt gt leq geq ) or
inequality notation:
number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 7 from both sides

$$7 + x-7<6 - 7$$

Step2: Simplify

$$x<-1$$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: \(x < - 1\)

To graph on the number line: draw an open circle at \(-1\) (because the inequality is strict, \(x
eq - 1\)) and shade the line to the left of \(-1\) to represent all values of \(x\) that are less than \(-1\).
