Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Solve the inequality 2(x - 1) > 3. What is the solution?
Correct Answer: x > 5/2
  • Step 1: Start with the inequality: 2(x - 1) > 3.
  • Step 2: Distribute the 2 on the left side: 2 * x - 2 > 3.
  • Step 3: Simplify the left side: 2x - 2 > 3.
  • Step 4: Add 2 to both sides to isolate the term with x: 2x > 3 + 2.
  • Step 5: Simplify the right side: 2x > 5.
  • Step 6: Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x: x > 5/2.
