Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Determine the solution set for the inequality 3x - 4 < 2x + 5.
Correct Answer: x < 9
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 3x - 4 < 2x + 5.
  • Step 2: To isolate x, first subtract 2x from both sides: 3x - 2x - 4 < 5.
  • Step 3: This simplifies to: x - 4 < 5.
  • Step 4: Next, add 4 to both sides to isolate x: x < 5 + 4.
  • Step 5: This simplifies to: x < 9.
  • Inequalities – Understanding how to manipulate and solve linear inequalities.
  • Algebraic Manipulation – Skills in isolating the variable and performing operations on both sides of the inequality.
