x+2 over 5 > x-1 over 2
\n" ); document.write( "(x+2)/5>(x-1)/2 cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( "2(x+2)>5(x-1)
\n" ); document.write( "2x+4>5x-5
\n" ); document.write( "2x-5x>-5-4
\n" ); document.write( "-3x>-9
\n" ); document.write( "x<-9/-3
\n" ); document.write( "x<3 answer.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( "let x=2
\n" ); document.write( "(2+2)/5>(2-1)/2
\n" ); document.write( "4/5>1/2
