Question

solve the inequality and graph the solution on the line provided. 3x + 17 < 26 answer attempt 1 out of 5 < > ≤ ≥ or inequality notation: number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Subtract 17 from both sides

$$3x+17 - 17<26 - 17$$
$$3x<9$$

Step2: Divide both sides by 3

$$\frac{3x}{3}<\frac{9}{3}$$
$$x < 3$$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: \(x < 3\)
For the number line: Place an open circle at \(3\) (since \(x\) is less than, not less than or equal to) and shade the line to the left of \(3\).
