Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Find the solution set for the inequality 2x + 4 < 3x - 1.
Correct Answer: x > 5
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 2x + 4 < 3x - 1.
  • Step 2: To isolate x, first subtract 2x from both sides: 4 < 3x - 2x - 1.
  • Step 3: This simplifies to: 4 < x - 1.
  • Step 4: Next, add 1 to both sides to isolate x: 4 + 1 < x.
  • Step 5: This simplifies to: 5 < x.
  • Step 6: We can also write this as: x > 5.
