Would I only get 1 mark for this question instead of 2?

Would I only get 1 mark for this question instead of 2?

For question 12, in the image I have attached, would I only get 1 mark for putting x=2, when in fact it should be x is <2. If I wrote "=" symbols in my working would I also lose a mark? I really need the marks so please tell me I would only lose 1!! Surely I should get 1 mark for showing that I could almost get the answer?

I'm pretty sure you'd get 1 out of 2. The mark you get is for the correct rearranging, but you lose one for not understanding the inequality.
