Answer:
-8>x
Step-by-step explanation:
-26>2x-10
First we add 10 to both sides:
-26+10>2x-10+10
Simplify:
-16>2x
Divide both sides by 2:
-16÷2>2x÷2
Simplify:
-8>x
This is correct as -7 is the largest whole number that would go against this inequality since:
-26>2(-7)-10
-26>-14-10
-26>-24 ❌
But anything less than -8 will work since:
-26>2(-8)-10
-26>-16-10
-26>-26 ❌ since they are equal.
