Question

This seems so simple but I don't remember how to solve these problems... 0-0.....The inequality 3/4x<4+2x is equivalent to?

anonymous · Answer

If you're looking to isolate x on one side of the equation, you'll want to divide by 3/4, which is equivalent to multiplying by 4/3. Once you multiply both sides by 4/3 you'll have x by itself on the left.

anonymous · Answer

alrighty, let me try that!

anonymous · Answer

but what about the right side, there will still be an x there b/c of the 2x

anonymous · Answer

Right. You'll then want to subtract the x quantity from one of the sides so you only have one x term left.

anonymous · Answer

okay, I tried but I'm not getting the right answer. I have the answer here my steps are just wrong ( ._.)

anonymous · Answer

Never mind! I started by subtracting the 2x first. and well previously forgot to change the direction of the inequality.  I got it now. Thanks for the push in the right direction however!:D
