Answer :

We have to find values of x for which is less than zero that is negative

Now for negative x – 2 should be negative that is x – 2 < 0

⇒ x – 2 < 0

⇒ x < 2

Hence x should be less than 2 for

x < 2 means x can take values from -∞ to 2 hence x ∈ (-∞, 2)

Hence the solution set for              is (-∞, 2)
