8x - (5x + 4) >

First, simplify brackets. / Your problem should look like: 8x - 5x - 4 >
Second, add 4 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 8x - 5x > 4
Third, simplify 8x - 5x to 3x. / Your problem should look like: 3x > 4
Fourth, divide both sides by 3. / Your problem should look like: x >
(4)/(3)

Answer: x >
(4)/(3)
