To solve the inequalities, we need to divide both sides of the inequality by the coefficient of x.
For the first inequality, 2.8x < 10.5, dividing both sides by 2.8, we get x < 3.75.
For the second inequality, 3.7x > 14.8, dividing both sides by 3.7, we get x > 4.
For the third inequality, 4.9x > 19.6, dividing both sides by 4.9, we get x > 4.
For the fourth inequality, 2.1x < 8.4, dividing both sides by 2.1, we get x < 4.
Therefore, the inequality that Pablo solved and graphed is 2.1x < 8.4.
For the first inequality, 2.8x < 10.5, dividing both sides by 2.8, we get x < 3.75.
For the second inequality, 3.7x > 14.8, dividing both sides by 3.7, we get x > 4.
For the third inequality, 4.9x > 19.6, dividing both sides by 4.9, we get x > 4.
For the fourth inequality, 2.1x < 8.4, dividing both sides by 2.1, we get x < 4.
Therefore, the inequality that Pablo solved and graphed is 2.1x < 8.4.
can you explain how that is the correct answer while other answers are the same sum?

I apologize for the confusion in my previous response. Upon closer examination, it seems that I made an error in identifying the correct inequality that Pablo solved.
Let's go through the inequalities again and determine the correct one:
1. 2.8x < 10.5: Dividing both sides by 2.8, we get x < 3.75.
2. 3.7x > 14.8: Dividing both sides by 3.7, we get x > 4.
3. 4.9x > 19.6: Dividing both sides by 4.9, we get x > 4.
4. 2.1x < 8.4: Dividing both sides by 2.1, we get x < 4.
Upon reevaluating, we can see that both options 3 and 4 yield the same result: x > 4.
Therefore, the correct answer would be either option 3 (4.9x > 19.6) or option 4 (2.1x < 8.4).
