\text{Solve the inequality for x:}\\\\6x-5<2x+11\\\\\text{Subtract 2x from both sides}\\\\4x-5<11\\\\\text{Add 5 to both sides}\\\\4x<16\\\\\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\\\\boxed{x<4}

Answer:

x < 4 or x = ( -∞, 4)

Explanation:

  • 6x - 5 < 2x + 11
  • 6x - 2x < 11 + 5
  • 4x < 16
  • x < 16/4
  • x < 4

or

  • x = ( -∞, 4)
