Which are correct representations of the inequality –3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x)? Select two options. x < 5 –6x – 5 < 10 – x –6x + 15 < 10 – 5x
5 answers
x < 5 and –6x – 5 < 10 – x are the correct representations of the inequality –3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x).
3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x)
6x - 15 < 10 - 5x
11x < 25
x < 25/11

My apologies, I must have made a mistake earlier. Your solution is correct. The inequality -3(2x - 5) < 5(2 - x) simplifies to 6x - 15 < 10 - 5x, and further simplifies to 11x < 25. Therefore, the solution is x < 25/11. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
What about the poor student , who trusted you with the correct answer,
and probably is not coming back to the post to see your mistake ???
