To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable x.
Starting with the given inequality:
9.5x - 1.25 < 32
Add 1.25 to both sides:
9.5x < 33.25
Divide both sides by 9.5:
x < 3.5
From the number line options given, the correct graph would be:
A number line is shown ranging from negative 10 to 10 with numbers listed in unit increments. A closed point is plotted on the number line between 3 and 4. A leftward arrow is marked on the number line that originates at the closed point and goes beyond negative 10.
This represents all values of x less than 3.5, including the value 3.5.
Solve the inequality 9.5x−1.25<32 . Which of the following graphs shows the solution?(1 point)
