question
solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided.
4x + 14 < -2
answer attempt 1 out of 2
< > ≤ ≥ or
inequality notation:
number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 14 from both sides

$$4x+14 - 14<-2 - 14$$
$$4x<-16$$

Step2: Divide both sides by 4

$$\frac{4x}{4}<\frac{-16}{4}$$
$$x < - 4$$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: \(x < - 4\)

For the number - line: Place an open circle at \(-4\) (because the inequality is strict, i.e., \(x
eq - 4\)) and draw an arrow to the left of \(-4\) towards the negative infinity.
