Solve x+2/1 2<8

Question

. Make sure to write your inequality so that x
comes first.(1 point)

Answer 1

To solve the inequality \( \frac{x + 2}{1} < 8 \), we can simplify it to:

\[ x + 2 < 8 \]

Next, we want to isolate \( x \) by subtracting 2 from both sides:

\[ x < 8 - 2 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ x < 6 \]

Now, we need to write the inequality so that \( x \) comes first. Thus, the final inequality is:

\[ x < 6 \]

You can also write this as:

\[ 6 > x \]

Both forms convey the same meaning.
