2(5 - x)>8 solve for x

x < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we need to get x by itself

2(5 - x)>8

Distribute the 2

2*5 -2*x >8

10- 2x >8

Subtract 10 from both sides

10-10 -2x >8 -10

-2x > -2

Divide both sides by -2

-2x/-2> -2/-2

Since we divided by a negative number, we must flip the inequality sign

x < 1

x < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(5 - x) > 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

5 - x > 4 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

- x > - 1

Multiply both sides by - 1, reversing the symbol as a result of multiplying by a negative quantity.

x < 1

-4

step-by-step explanation:

(-4+8)=-(4-8)=-8+4=-4
