Question

solve for $x$ and graph the solution on the number line below.

$-1<\frac{x}{2}$

answer attempt 1 out of 3

inequality notation:

number line:

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply both sides by 2

$$-1\times2<\frac{x}{2}\times2$$

Step2: Simplify

$$-2 < x$$

Answer:

Inequality Notation: \(x > - 2\)

On the number - line, we have an open circle at \(x=-2\) (because the inequality is strict, i.e., \(x
eq - 2\)) and the line extends to the right towards positive infinity.
