Answer:-4(2x - 1) > 5 - 3x

solution:

-4(2x) -4(-1) > 5 - 3x Distribute -4 to get -8x + 4 > 5 - 3x

-8x + 4 > 5 - 3x

+3x + 3x

-5x + 4 > 5

- 4 -4

-5x > 1

÷ -5 ÷ -5

x < - 1/5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(2x - 1) > 5 - 3x

The first step would be to expand the brackets.

-4( 2x ) - 4( -1 ) > 5 - 3x

Distribute the -4 to 2x and -1 to get:

-8x + 4 > 5 - 3x

How do I solve this math problem?

Nat2105 [25]

Answer: 4x² + 4x - 2 - $\frac{3}{2x+3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use either synthetic or long division. I am using synthetic division:

2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = $-\frac{3}{2}$

$-\frac{3}{2}$ | 4 10 4 -6

| ↓ -6 -6 3

4 4 -2 -3 ← -3 is the remainder

↓ ↓ ↓

4x² +4x -2 ← factored polynomial
