\n" ); document.write( "I have to solve for the inequality \"%284x%29%2F%282x%2B3%29%3E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "I figured I would multiply 2x+3 to both sides, so I'll end up getting:
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x%3E2%282x%2B3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "If I distribute the 2, then I would end up getting:
\n" ); document.write( "\"4x%3E4x%2B6\"
\n" ); document.write( "But here lies the problem. I can't get both x's on one side because they'd just cancel each other out. So then I'm left with 0>6 which is false. So I feel like I approached this incorrectly.
\n" ); document.write( "What am I doing wrong?

By multiplying the denominator, you lose the information contained within it.
