Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Determine the solution set for the inequality 4x - 1 < 3.
Correct Answer: x < 1
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 4x - 1 < 3.
  • Step 2: Add 1 to both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with x. This gives you: 4x - 1 + 1 < 3 + 1.
  • Step 3: Simplify both sides. The left side becomes 4x and the right side becomes 4. So now you have: 4x < 4.
  • Step 4: Divide both sides of the inequality by 4 to solve for x. This gives you: x < 4 / 4.
  • Step 5: Simplify the right side. 4 / 4 equals 1, so you have: x < 1.
