What is the solution set for this inequality? and how?
3x+1>2x-3(1-x)
--------------
3x+1 > 2x-3+3x
Subtract 3x from both sides
Reorder the inequality.
------------------------------
2x -3 < 1
Add 3 to both sides.
------------------------------
2x < 4
Divide both sides by 2.
x < 2
-------------
Cheers,
