Question

Choose the missing step in the given solution to the inequality −x − 10 > 14 + 2x.

Answer 1

Answer:

a. $-3x>24$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an inequality $-x-10>14+2x$. We are asked to find the missing step to solve the given inequality.

Let us solve the given inequality.

$-x-2x-10>14+2x-2x$

$-3x-10>14$

$-3x-10+10>14+10$

$-3x>24$

$\frac{-3x}{-3}$

$x$

Therefore, our missing step is $-3x>24$.

Answer 2

Missing step : -3x > 24 <== to get that, 10 was added to both sides
