2x-1 less than -1 or -4x less than -12

Mathematics

The solution to these equations is either x < 0 or x > 3.

In order to find them, we need to solve each equation separately. Let's start with the first one.

2x - 1 < -1 -----> Add 1 to both sides

2x < 0 -----> Now divide each side by 2.

x < 0

Now let's look at the second one.

-4x < -12 ----> Divide both sides by -4

x > 3 (Notice that the sign changes direction because we divided by a negative)

When you have an "or" statement, you'll wind up with two answers, so we use both of these.
