Q. State all integer values of x in the interval −8≤x≤−3 that satisfy the following inequality:2x+10<−4Answer: x=
Identify Inequality & Interval: Identify the inequality and the given interval.The inequality to solve is 2x+10<−4, and we are looking for integer solutions within the interval −8≤x≤−3.
Isolate Variable x: Isolate the variable x on one side of the inequality.Subtract 10 from both sides of the inequality to get 2x<−14.Calculation: 2x+10−10<−4−102x<−14
Divide by 2: Divide both sides of the inequality by 2 to solve for x.Calculation: 22x<2−14x<−7
Determine Integer Values: Determine the integer values of x that are less than −7 and within the given interval −8≤x≤−3. Since x must be less than −7, the only integer value of x within the interval that satisfies this condition is x=−8.
