Write the following in inequality notation:
\n" ); document.write( "2 x + 5 < 5 x -1
\n" ); document.write( "add -5x to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "-3x+5<-1
\n" ); document.write( "add -5 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "-3x<-6
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by -3 and reverse inequality sign
\n" ); document.write( "x>2
\n" ); document.write( "solution:
\n" ); document.write( "(2,∞)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
