x - 213
< 216
x - 2 and 1 third < 2 and 1 sixth

x + 1.75 ≤ 5.75
x + 1.75 ≤ 5.75

x + 212
< 212
x + 2 and 1 half < 2 and 1 half

x - 1.5 ≤ 3

Answer 2

To solve the inequality x + 2 1/2 < 8, we need to subtract 2 1/2 from both sides of the inequality:

x + 2 1/2 - 2 1/2 < 8 - 2 1/2

Simplifying both sides, we have:

x < 5 1/2

Therefore, the correct inequality is x < 5 1/2.

Answer 3

Based on the information given, it is not possible to determine which specific inequality Willow solved. We would need more information or the image to accurately determine the correct inequality.
