Step-by-step explanation:
(3x+1)/2<−x+4
Multiply each side by 2 using the multiplication property of equality
3x+1 < -2x +8
Subtract 1 from each side using the subtraction property of equality
3x < -2x+7
Add 2x to each side using the addition property of equality
5x < 7
Divide each side by 5 using the division property of equality
x < 7/5
