Question

Irene made a mistake when she solved this inequality:

Step 1: -6(x + 3) + 10 < -2
Step 2: -6x − 18 + 10 < -2
Step 3: -6x − 8 < -2
Step 4: -6x < 6
Step 5: x < -1

Between which two consecutive steps did Irene make a mistake?

    Answer:

    she messed up on step two because she has to subtract 10 from both sides

    Step-by-step explanation:

    step 1: -6(x+3)+10<-2

    step2:-6(x+3)+10-10<-2-10

    step3: -6(x+3)<-12

    step4: (-6)(x+3)(-1)≥(-12)(-1)

    step5:6(x+3)>12

    step6:divide both sides by 6

    step7:simplify and subtract 3 from both sides and then simplify again
