Solve using the addition and multiplication principles.


 5 + 2x < 23 

The solution set is {x, x __ __} 

Type and inequality symbol, and then an integer or fraction.


 5 + 2x < 23

Add -5 to both sides

 5 + 2x < 23
-5        -5
 0 + 2x < 18
     2x < 18

Multiply both sides by 

       

             
    
             
          

          

Solution set:

    { , }
