The second step for solving the inequality 3(x−5)−4x>9 is to combine like terms.
The second step for solving the inequality 3(x - 5) - 4x > 9 is to combine like terms.
The second step for solving the inequality 3(x−5)−4x>9 is to combine like terms.
To do this, distribute the 3 to the terms inside the parentheses:
3(x−5)−4x = 3x - 15 - 4x
Then, combine like terms by adding or subtracting the coefficients of the x terms:
3x - 15 - 4x = -x - 15
Now the inequality becomes -x - 15 > 9.
