Answer:

B) x < –8

Step-by-step explanation:

–2x – 3 > 13

Add 3 to each side

–2x – 3+3 > 13+3

-2x > 16

Divide each side by -2, remembering to flip the inequality

-2x/-2 < 16/-2

x < -8

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

–2x – 3 > 13

-2x > 13 + 3

-2x > 16

-16 > 2x

Swap sides to make coefficient of x positive

-16 > 2x

-8 > x

Same as: x < -8
