Hello,
So I was on the BBC bitesize website revising/researching inequalities. I clicked the test section and came across a questions which got me confused.
Question: -2x < 7
Answers:
1)
2)
3)
Immediately I was confused I thought you had to get the x value on its own so I took -2 away from boths sides and got X = 7 obviously this was wrong so I randomly clicked on one of the answers to see the correct one and here is what it said:

is
and then dividing by
you should get
on the right-hand side of the inequality. "
This made me even more confused.
Where did the 12 - 5 come from in the first place? It's like it just randomly shown up
