Solve x+2 1/2<8 . Make sure to write your inequality so that x comes first.(1 point)

Answer 1

To solve the inequality x + 2 1/2 < 8, we need to isolate x on one side of the inequality sign.

First, let's subtract 2 1/2 from both sides of the inequality:

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

Simplifying, we get:

x < 5 1/2

Therefore, the inequality, written with x coming first, is:

x < 5 1/2.
