Hi, first subtract 3 from both sides

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

then what do you get? @kweenlexis

OpenStudy (kweenlexis):

from 2 & 4?

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

no from both sides 3+2(4+x)-3<15-3

OpenStudy (kweenlexis):

15-3=12

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

so 2(4+x)<12 is the resulting inequality

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

now divide both sides by 2

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

hello

OpenStudy (kweenlexis):

12/2=6

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

so 4+x<6

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

now subtract 4 from both sides and you will get the final answer which is???

OpenStudy (kweenlexis):

x>-2?

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

x<2
