The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \(3x + 7 < 5x - 4\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Rearrange the inequality We start with the given inequality: \[ 3x + 7 < 5x - 4 \] We want to isolate \(x\) on one side. First, we can move \(3x\) to the right side and \(-4\) to the left side. ### Step 2: Move terms Subtract \(3x\) from both sides: \[ 7 < 5x - 3x - 4 \] This simplifies to: \[ 7 < 2x - 4 \] ### Step 3: Add 4 to both sides Next, we add \(4\) to both sides to isolate the term with \(x\): \[ 7 + 4 < 2x \] This simplifies to: \[ 11 < 2x \] ### Step 4: Divide by 2 Now, we divide both sides by \(2\) to solve for \(x\): \[ \frac{11}{2} < x \] ### Step 5: Rewrite the inequality This can be rewritten as: \[ x > \frac{11}{2} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the solution to the inequality is: \[ x > \frac{11}{2} \] This means that \(x\) must be greater than \(5.5\).
