Polynomial Inequality.. got stuck :/
question please
I got up to \[\frac{ x+4 }{ 2x-1} + \frac{ -3(2x-1) }{2x-1}=0\]
The original is x+4 / 2x-1 < 3
\[\frac{ x+4 }{ 2x-1 } < 3\]
x+4<6x-3
5x > 7 x > 7/5
7/5 is part of the answer, but I have no idea what u did lol
one sec
to eliminate denominator, multiplied both side by (2x-1)
\(\bf \cfrac{ x+4 }{ {\color{brown}{ 2x-1}} } < 3\impliedby cross-multiply \\ \quad \\ x+4<3\cdot {\color{brown}{ (2x-1)}}\implies x+4<6x-3 \\ \quad \\ 4+3<6x-x\implies 7<5x\implies \cfrac{7}{5}<x\)
And then just took x and constants in opposite sides of the inequality sign
Yeah I got that far, then got the first thing I put. I was gonna ask if I can cross the (2x-1) out
@jdoe0001 Oh okay! let me study this
\(\bf \cfrac{ x+4 }{ {\color{brown}{ 2x-1}} } < 3\impliedby cross-multiply \\ \quad \\ x+4<3\cdot {\color{brown}{ (2x-1)}}\implies x+4<6x-3 \\ \quad \\ x+4+3<6x\cancel{-3+3}\implies x+7<6x\implies \cancel{x-x}+7<6x-x \\ \quad \\ 7<5x\implies \cfrac{7}{5}<x\) slower version notice, we "add" 3 and then "subtract" x
@jdoe0001 I dont get what you did in the 3rd line... is that where you added 3? From where and why?
I see where, but why? @jdoe0001
You were ok up to this point?\[\large\rm x+4<6x-3\]
No I got up to x+7 < 6x then I didnt understand
