We need to isolate the x to find the inequality.

Now we multiply by 2 on both sides to get rid of the fraction. So we get:

Note: if we had multiplied or divided on both sides of the inequality by a NEGATIVE number, the inequality symbol would have changed directions. But since we didn't, it remained the same.

Done! :)
