Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x – 1/2

2.x = –1/2

3.x = 11/3

4.x < – 4/3

5.x < –5/4

Answer:

1. Yes

4(-2) +3 = -5

-8 + 3 = -5

-5 = -5 ✅

2. No

3(3) - 2 = -(3) - 4

9 - 2 = -3 -4

7 = -7 ❎

3. Yes

5 (11/3 - 2) = 2(11/3) + 1

5(5/3) = 22/3 +1

25/3 = 25/3 ✅

4. No

3(-1) + 2 < -2

-3 + 2 < -2

-1 < -2 ❎

5. No

4(¼) + 3 < -2

1 + 3 < -2

4 < -2 ❎
