Q
Q: What is the solution to the inequality 5 - 2x < 1?
Solution:
Subtract 5 from both sides: -2x < -4. Then divide by -2 (reverse the inequality): x > 2.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Start with the inequality 5 - 2x < 1.
Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides to isolate the term with x. This gives you -2x < 1 - 5.
Step 3: Simplify the right side: 1 - 5 equals -4. Now you have -2x < -4.
Step 4: To solve for x, divide both sides by -2. Remember, when you divide by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality sign.
Step 5: After dividing, you get x > 2.
