To solve 5x + 12.5 < 23.1, we can start by subtracting 12.5 from both sides:
5x + 12.5 - 12.5 < 23.1 - 12.5
Simplifying:
5x < 10.6
Next, we divide both sides of the inequality by 5 to isolate the variable x:
(5x)/5 < 10.6/5
Simplifying further:
x < 2.12
Therefore, the solution to the inequality 5x + 12.5 < 23.1 in decimal form rounded to the hundredths place is x < 2.12.
solve 5x + 12.5 < 23.1 write the rational number jn your answer in decimal form from the hundredths place
