You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You can solve inequalities such as this much like you would solve equations.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"2x%2B2%3E5x%2B1\"$ Subtract 2x from both sides of the inequality.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2%3E3x%2B1\"$ Subtract 1 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%3E3x\"$ Finally, divide both sides by 3.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F3%3Ex\"$ or $\"x%3C1%2F3\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
