Twice a number increased by 5= 2x+5
5 decreased by twice a number= 5-2x
twice the difference of a number and 5= 2(x-5)
Twice the sum of a number and 5= 2(x+5)
Five subtracted from twice a number= 2x-5
Twice a number, less 5= 2x-5
The solution is x < 3.
Solution:
The given expression is 3x + 4 < 13.
To solve the given inequality.
3x + 4 < 13
Subtract 4 tiles on both sides of the inequality.
⇒ 3x + 4 – 4 < 13 – 4
⇒ 3x < 9
Divide by 3 tiles on both sides of the inequality.
⇒ 
⇒ x < 3
Hence the solution is x < 3.
