Solve the inequality. $5>-x$ A) x>5 B) x< 4 C) x < 5 D) x > -5 E) x< -5

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To solve the inequality, we need to isolate x on one side. We can do this by subtracting 5 from both sides: $$5>-x \Rightarrow 5-5>-x-5 \Rightarrow 0>-x-5$$ Next, we can multiply both sides by -1 to flip the inequality: $$0>-x-5 \Rightarrow 0-(-x-5)<0 \Rightarrow x+5<0$$ Finally, we can solve for x by subtracting 5 from both sides: $$x+5<0 \Rightarrow x<-5$$ Therefore, the answer is (D) x > -5.
