Which values are solutions to the inequality below? Check all that apply.

\[ x^2 < 49 \]

A. 51
B. 6
C. -5
D. 49
E. -5
F. No solution

Answer :

The given inequality is expressed as

x^2 < 49

We would test for values of x that would satisfy the inequality

If we substitute x = 6, we have

6^2 < 49

36 < 49

This is true

If we substitute x = - 5, we have

(- 5)^2 < 49

25 < 49

this is true

Thus, the given values that are solutions to the inequality are

B and C
