Question

Solve the inequality

Answer 1

Lets solve your inequality step by step:

- 2(5x + 1) > 48

Simplify both sides of inequality:

- 10x - 2 > 48

Add 2 to both sides:

- 10x - 2 + 2 > 48 + 2

- 10x > 50

Divide both sides by - 10:

- 10x/ - 10 > 50/ - 10

x < - 5

Answer: x < - 5

Hope that helps!!!! (Answer: x < - 5)

Answer 2

-2(5x + 1) > 48

When we multiply or divide by a negative number, that flips the inequality:

5x + 1 < -24

5x < -25

x < -5

Answer: x < -5
