Ok Sue my last problem for the night then I am done!! Yeah
2x + 3 > x + 5
2x-x+3-3<x-x+15-3
2x<12
I am sure this is wrong. I need help !!!
I think you made a typo. Shouldn't + 15 be + 5?
2x + 3 > x + 5
2x - x + 3 - 3 > x - x + 5 - 3
x > 2
Ok, I really took 3x5 and got the 15 but I see what you did. Thanks
It seems like you're trying to solve a linear inequality. Let's go through the steps to find the correct solution.
The given inequality is: 2x + 3 > x + 5.
1. Start by subtracting x from both sides of the inequality to get rid of the x term on the right side:
2x - x + 3 > x - x + 5.
Simplifying this, we have: x + 3 > 5.
2. Next, subtract 3 from both sides of the inequality:
x + 3 - 3 > 5 - 3.
This simplifies to: x > 2.
Therefore, the solution to the inequality is x > 2.
