Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Determine the solution set for the inequality 2x + 3 > 5.
Correct Answer: x > 1
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 2x + 3 > 5.
  • Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides to isolate the term with x: 2x + 3 - 3 > 5 - 3.
  • Step 3: Simplify both sides: 2x > 2.
  • Step 4: Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x: 2x / 2 > 2 / 2.
  • Step 5: Simplify the left side: x > 1.
