Question

Which is the correct first step in solving the inequality -4(2x-1)>5-3x algebraically?

Answer 1

The correct first step is to distribute the -4 into 2x - 1. This will result in -8x + 4 > 5 - 3x. Now, the next step is to solve for the equation. This results in:
-5x + 4 > 5
-5x > 1
x < -0.2
Hope this helps!
