Answer 1

To match inequalities with their graphs, we need to solve each inequality and identify the range of values that it represents. Here's the breakdown of the given inequalities:

1. −5(x + 5) > −15:

   • Distributing: -5x - 25 > -15
   • Adding 25 to both sides: -5x > 10
   • Dividing by -5 (remember to flip the inequality): x < -2

2. 8x < 4:

   • Dividing both sides by 8: x < 0.5

3. x + 28 > 0:

   • Subtracting 28 from both sides: x > -28

4. −3(x − 12) > 0:

   • Distributing: -3x + 36 > 0
   • Subtracting 36 from both sides: -3x > -36
   • Dividing by -3 (flip the inequality): x < 12

5. 14(8x + 16) > -4:

   • Distributing: 112x + 224 > -4
   • Subtracting 224: 112x > -228
   • Dividing by 112: x > -2.0357 (approximately -2)

Now we can pair the inequalities with their graph:

• x < -2: Matches the inequality −5(x + 5) > −15.
• x < 0.5: Matches the inequality 8x < 4.
• x > -28: Matches the inequality x + 28 > 0.
• x < 12: Matches the inequality −3(x − 12) > 0.
• x > -2.0357: Matches the inequality 14(8x + 16) > -4.

You can insert the responses accordingly based on the matching given above.
