The inequality is $\"\"$ .

\

Apply Addition property of inequality: Add 2 to each side.

$\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Commutative property of addition: a + b = b + a)

\

$\"\"$ (Additive inverse property: $\"\"$ )

Graph the solution set on a number line

\

$\"number$

\

Note: A circle means that this point is not included in the solution set. $\"\"$

Check:

\

To check, a number less than $\"\"$ in $\"\"$ .

\

$\"\"$ (Substitute $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Add: $\"\"$ )

\

The inequality is true. $\"\"$
