Answer: 5 added to the product of 2 and P is less than 11

The reason for this is because the inequality multiples 2 and the variable p, which is the product. Then, you have to add 5 to the product of 2p. Since the sign is opened towards the 11, this indicates that the sum of 5 and 2 times p is less than 11. Hope that helps!
