Question

Solve This Please? 4-2(3x+1)>8x-12

Answer 1

Distribute it first:
4 - 6x - 2 > 8x - 12
Then, simplify and add 6x on both sides:
2 > 14x - 12 => 14x < 14 => x < 1. Now test some numbers, like 0 and -1 to see if the interval is correct :-)

Answer 2

why you changed the signs?

Answer 3

14 > 14x means that 14x < 14. It's just writing the same thing on a different fashion. :-)
