x+2 1/2<8

1 answer

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

Step 1: Subtract 2 1/2 from both sides of the inequality:
x + 2 1/2 - 2 1/2 < 8 - 2 1/2
x < 5 1/2

Therefore, the solution to the inequality x + 2 1/2 < 8 is x < 5 1/2.
