Answer:
x < -19/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x
2x+5 < (x+1)/4
Multiply each side by 4
4( 2x+5) < (x+1)/4 *4
8x + 20 < x+1
Subtract x from each side
8x+20-x < x+1-x
7x + 20 < 1
Subtract 20 from each side
7x+20-20 < 1-20
7x< -19
Divide by 7
7x/7 < -19/7
x < -19/7
Answer:
[tex] \red{x < \frac{ - 19}{7} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2x + 5 < \frac{x + 1}{4} \\ \text{use \: cross \: muliplication} \\ 4(2x + 5) < x + 1 \\ 8x + 20 < x + 1 \\ 8x - x < - 20 + 1 \\ 7x < - 19 \\ \frac{7x}{7} < \frac{ - 19}{7} \\ x < \frac{ - 19}{7} [/tex]
