Question

Solve the inequality. 3x + 7 > 4x + 2

Answer 1

5>x because you can subtract 5 from both sides and 3x from both sides

Answer 2

By solving this kind inequality, we would then have to find what does (x) equal, and then from here, we would determine which would be greater.


`rearrange: \\ 3*x+7-(4*x+2)\ \textgreater \ 0 \\ \\ Multiply \ both \ sides \ by \ (-1) \\ \\`

Then after, we add both sides by 5.

3x + 7=
`3*5+7`=22

4x + 2=
`4*5+2`=22

3x + 7 (x) 4x + 2
